About
In the heart of one of the most dynamic and influential cities in the world, the GW School of Business puts you in touch with the power to challenge ideas, asks you to look ahead, and prepares you to lead the way. Our graduate programs not only ground students in theory and research, but also connect them to the realities of their profession.
Students are at the forefront of smarter business — business that considers its impact on the world as well as the bottom line. In addition to rigorous training in traditional business competencies, every one of our programs is infused with ethical leadership, sustainability, social responsibility, and corporate citizenship, all taught from a global perspective.
Through theoretical and applied learning, our programs combine curricula from accounting, finance, project management, and other traditional business concentrations with industry-specific knowledge. You will gain experience on and off campus, through laboratory work, classroom-based courses, and online classes, and be given access to a large number of networking opportunities through GWSB’s alumni and student organizations.
At GWSB, our mission is to create and care for the physical environment that enables our students, faculty, and staff to achieve excellence. Below is the list of the facilities we have onsite for our students.
- The F. David Fowler Career Center
- GWSB Graduate Programs Academic Advising
- Global & Experiential Education
