I’ve been in Europe for two-weeks. My home is in City Hotel in Koblenz, Germany, and the school is WHU - Otto Beisheim School of Management. This has been FANTASTIC. We have classes Monday through Thursday from 8:45 AM -12:15 PM. Everything is running on time here (of course)! The professors are fantastic! All of them consult *major* corporations in addition to being professors, so many of them have been sharing their research. It has been wonderful to see academia in action.
IF YOU ENROLL AT TEPPER, GO ON ALL TRIPS ABROAD!
This trip is more than just school. We also have extra-curricular activities. We have visited a local winery, and tasted German wines, we are invited to the weekly “pub crawl”, and we toured the city in which we live. In addition, we get FREE breakfast & lunch, so that make us quite happy! (You will understand when you enroll in a MBA program, that having a fixed income (or better yet, no income) helps you appreciate life’s freebies!
Stay tuned....will fill you in on some details of our weekend travels in my next post.
Great to read your blog - I'm thinking about applying to Carnegie Mellon for my MBA and it's good to hear you are making the most of travel opportunities. I hear WHU is an excellent school - good luck!
