Key highlights

A truly global experience

  • During their study, students are provided options to exchange campuses within INSEAD, at either Fontainebleau or Singapore, plus Abu Dhabi and San Francisco, and with one of the school’s international partners, the Wharton School or Kellogg School of Management in the United States, or CEIBS in China.
  • The MBA class comprises students of over 110 nationalities, with no single nationality exceeding 10% of the class. This exceptional diversity fosters a rich learning environment where students gain exposure to broad perspectives, cultures and backgrounds.
  • Facilitated by the Career Development Centre, career treks are student- organized trips to major business hubs around the world to visit companies, attend presentations, network with alumni and industry professionals, and to gain insights into a variety of industries and roles. Popular destinations for career treks include major financial centers such as New York, London, Hong Kong and Dubai, as well as tech hubs and emerging markets.
