Experience in the classroom is only part of life at Yale SOM.

Students organize trips to places like India, Madagascar, Nigeria, and China. This means not only setting dates and booking plane tickets, but arranging meetings with business executives and high-ranking government officials. They run clubs that do things like raise funds for summer public interest fellowships and host the second-largest MBA soccer tournament in the country.

Each year is punctuated by major conferences that draw together scholars, businesspeople, and policy-makers – giving students an opportunity to learn about the subject of the conference and meet some of the most influential people in that field.
