NTU’s Nanyang Business School Launches New MBA Curriculum (NTU Website) – NTU is following in the footsteps of INSEAD and SMU which both offer 1 year MBA programs with a heavy soft skill component. It will be interesting to see how NTU changes its MBA application this Fall.
“From July next year, incoming Nanyang MBA participants can expect a sharper focus on leadership development, greater emphasis on industry application – especially in the Asian context, and deeper insights into corporate governance and social responsibility. They will also complete the course in 12 months, instead of 16 currently, reducing their time away from work and enabling them to progress more quickly in their careers.”
