Philadelphia

Philadelphia…birthplace of the nation; hotbed of history; and home to dozens of global headquarters for multinationals in a variety of industries.

It is here, at Temple University’s Fox School of Business, where students in the International MBA (IMBA) program will complete MBA Essentials – a mandatory, month-long orientation in August – and undertake their Enterprise Management Consulting (EMC) project in the spring. All courses occur in Alter Hall, the state-of-the-art building that houses the Fox School of Business.

During their time in Philadelphia, students are encouraged to take advantage of the vast historical and cultural experiences that the city offers. What’s more, because of Philadelphia’s centralized location in the Northeast corridor of the U.S., day or weekend trips to Washington, D.C. or New York City can be easily made.

About Alter Hall

From the 7th floor of Alter Hall you get a stunning view of the world around you. The glittering skyscrapers of Center City Philadelphia. The majestic bridges that span the Delaware River. The vibrant, culturally rich neighborhoods that make up our city. From this vantage point, you can see how each connects seamlessly to the other. It’s this same seamless connectivity that is found throughout Alter Hall.
