Nestle Scholarship for Women
Deadline: September 30
In 1996 a group of women in pursuit of their MBA completed a project called “Changing the Shape of Business,” this project sparked the efforts to create a scholarship that would assist women who want to pursue their MBA but do not have the funds. The scholarship was then created by IMD with the support and financial funding from Nestle to grant one individual CHF 25,000.
The Nestle Scholarship is open annually to women around the world who are pursuing their MBA at IMD. Each candidates who applies will be evaluated by the IMD MBA Scholarship Committee and one award will be granted to an eligible individual who has been accepted into the IMD MBA program, has a financial need for assistance and submits a 750-word essay based upon the following: “Does Diversity in Management Impact the Bottom Line?

Business schools are lagging behind in preparing students for careers in an increasingly global world and need to become more strategic about how they weave cross-border content into their programs, according to a report released today by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).

Robert Bruner, chairman of the AACSB Globalization of Management Education Task Force, which wrote the report, calls the study “a real wake-up call” for business schools.
