Power & Policy Challenge
No successful business can ignore its local and global contexts, from the impact of a growing number of competitors or increased demand, through to the impact of free-trade zones, tax changes, and regional changes in growth, political influence, governments, and recession.
AT A GLANCE:
7.5 credits
Challenge: Project
Required for all except some transfer students

Project
Power is a product of history, circumstance, and opportunity. This challenge allows you to learn about the historic and contemporary realities of economic, technologic, legal, educational, and infrastructural inequalities, and devise effective, ethical, and profitable responses.
You'll research the differences between specific emerging markets and the G20 economies to propose what national and international policies would make a fundamental change, remove inequalities, and encourage growth that benefits all parties.
Mindsets and core skills
We partnered with Burning Glass Technologies and analyzed millions of job postings worldwide to understand the key mindsets and core skills that are most in demand. We’ve integrated the assessment of these skills—like collaboration, communication, and creativity—into our core modules.
You’ll be continually assessed on your performance to ensure you build up these attributes to the best of your ability alongside your problem-solving and leadership skills.
Politics is about how your party can help others; business is how your company can. At Hult, you learn how to bridge the two.
