MBA Program

Change starts here.

Change lives, change organizations, change the world. Our motto is more than words — ideas started here have fundamentally changed how the world works, connects, and lives. But there is another change a little less quantifiable — an internal change that occurs as students become leaders by challenging themselves intellectually, engaging and collaborating with their equally driven peers, and gaining global exposure.

No matter the end goal, our two-year MBA program will help you become a stronger leader and a better person. Find out more about how your time at Stanford can change you.

Stanford GSB, with our campus in the heart of Silicon Valley, is a one-of-a-kind MBA program that has redefined the business school experience. Here, you’ll be pushed and challenged by best-in-class faculty and supported by your classmates in an environment unlike anywhere else. Collaboration, not competition, is key in a Stanford classroom. You’ll work closely with students from all around the world and of all different backgrounds. Against the backdrop of beautiful California days, many of these students will become life-long collaborators, mentors, and friends.
