Full-Time MBA Orientation
Welcome, Announcements, and Important Information:
Welcome to the Rutgers Full-Time MBA Immersive First-Year Orientation Experience. In addition to the comprehensive in-person orientation in August and corresponding online modules, students are required to attend four sessions during both the fall and spring semesters, integral to both admission and graduation requirements. These eight sessions are designed to augment academic learning with practical co-curricular activities, including case competition training, public speaking, emotional intelligence, sales training, and discussions on business leadership, among other relevant topics. Attendance at orientation is mandatory, as it is a prerequisite for graduation. The dates of these seminars will be announced at Orientation. As stated earlier, the Coursera Modules in Statistics, Calculus, Public Speaking, and Business Specialization are also required in the Immersive Orientation Experience.
Location of Orientation: Rutgers Business School: 1 Washington Park, Newark, NJ 07102, Room 608.
Please enter at the front door of Rutgers Business School, provide security with your government-issued ID and a copy of the welcome email, proceed to the elevator, and arrive at the 6th floor.
