The Higher Education Review

The UK has been one of the top international higher education destinations in the world for many decades now. The quality of education combined with real-world exposure and a myriad of job opportunities are some of the many reasons that make it an attractive study-abroad option for many international students. As of 2021, the total number of international students in the UK stood at 605,130, which shows its international appeal. Hult International Business School is one of the most pioneering higher education institutions in the UK, which also has campuses in the US, Dubai, and Shanghai. Hult is the first triple-accredited business school in the US and is recognized by business education's three most prestigious international accrediting bodies: The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB International), Association of MBAs (AMBA), and EQUIS (The European Quality Improvement System).

Creating an Inclusive Learning Environment
Hult is a dynamic multicultural community that educates, inspires, and connects some of the world's most forward-thinking business talent. The school flips the traditional approach to education by using learning-by-doing experiences to transform students' skillset, from the moment they join, into that of an exceptional businessperson, from the moment they graduate. Its purpose is to create a better future for all by inspiring and challenging each individual in its community to make an impact that matters and lead others to do the same. Hult aims to do this by using its global reach, creativity, entrepreneurial mindset, and constant innovation. The school also contributes to sustainable growth, helping leaders integrate commercial success and societal well-being and in so doing, Hult strives to be the business school of choice for existing and aspiring leaders.

Hult offers a range of business-related programs including the Global MBA program, Master's in International Business, Business Analytics, Finance, International Marketing, and Entrepreneurship & Innovation. Their MFIN and MBAN programs are STEM-designated and their MBA and MIB programs can be tailored to follow the STEM track. This is particularly beneficial for students going to the US. Hult's unique business challenge-based curriculum, allows students to be immersed in various real-world business simulations while equipping them with skills imperative to become successful business professionals. Learning by doing is at the center of Hult's philosophy. While traditional institutions place a strong emphasis on testing students' theoretical knowledge, at Hult, the focus is on what students can actually do. As a result, it has designed its programs so that students tackle business challenges based on case studies, real-world corporate problems, and simulations after each module. Companies such as Audi, L'Oreal, Nestle, and Ferrari visit their campus to work with their students on these business challenges.

Hult also has a Global CampusRotation program in which students can study on up to three campuses while pursuing their master's degree. Furthermore, they have one of the most diverse student bodies on campus, with over 150 nationalities represented. Because no single nationality dominates the student body, students are truly immersed in an environment in which they can learn about cultural nuances, business norms, and international markets through regular peer-to-peer interactions.
