BUSINESS AND BEYOND
At Hult, you’ll learn
about the world
Cultural differences matter
more than ever, so at Hult
you’ll be immersed in diversity
from day one.
Global businesses are run by local people
Globalization is a fact of business life. Markets are more
interconnected than ever before, companies are becoming
multinational quicker, and global trade is taking a bigger
and bigger percentage of global GDP.
However, business practices remain resolutely local.
Attitudes to things like timekeeping, communication style,
and consensus building are deeply rooted in the local
culture. Failure to navigate these fundamental differences
is a major reason for not succeeding in international
business. As a result, employers are increasingly looking to
hire people with the ability to operate in a culturally
diverse environment.

The classroom diversity at Hult is unparalleled. Over the
course of their degree, the average Hult student will work
directly with teammates of over 30 different nationalities.
Exposure to this broad range of cultures ensures that you
