Students will be able to complete one or all of the three courses developed in collaboration with content specialists on the faculties of leading business schools in the United States of America such as Georgetown University McDonough School, George Mason University School of Business, Northeastern University D'Amore-McKim School, and University of Pennsylvania Wharton School.
The courses will benefit both aspiring business school students who are early in the admissions process and those who have been admitted to a future program. According to reports, the course series is especially beneficial for those transitioning from a non-business undergraduate background or seeking a career change by pursuing an MBA or business master's degree.
These Business Fundamentals have been made available for students at GMAC’s flagship web portal. Other than that, these Fundamentals can also be accessed through the platform Kaplan.
