THE WHARTON WAY

Hear from Dean Erika H. James on why Wharton is initiating collaboration across disciplines, divides, and beyond.

Throughout our 145+ year legacy of success, Wharton has pursued outcomes where the sum can be greater than its parts. From this perspective, we’ve built an array of multifaceted partnerships spanning academic backgrounds and industry foci. Collaborating across disciplines and divides means serving as the primary convener of thought leaders to share perspectives, tackle challenges, and produce solutions that benefit us all.

OUR SUCCESS WILL ALLOW US TO:

Invite and cultivate collaboration with others to nurture a global exchange of information that helps improve the world.

Champion an innovative engagement model in which industry, non-profit, and academic alliances foster the exchange of information and insights.

By engaging in collaboration, and thinking about academic possibilities that are coming together through different domains, we can really ensure that the next generation is gaining a unique perspective through multiple lenses."
