PLEASE SHARE: SUMMER LEADERSHIP FELLOWSHIP FOR MBA & MSC STUDENTS AND EARLY CAREER EXECUTIVES

FASPE (Fellowships at Auschwitz for the Study of Professional Ethics in Business) is now accepting applications for its 2017 Business program. 

FASPE Business is a fully-funded, two-week summer program that uses the conduct of executives and managers in Nazi Germany as a launching point and backdrop for an intensive study of contemporary business ethics and leadership. FASPE Business is predicated upon the power of place. Led by Mary Gentile, of UVA Darden, and Markus Scholz, of FHWien University of Applied Sciences, Fellows visit Auschwitz and other sites in Germany and Poland where they consider how to apply the lessons of history to the ethical challenges they will face in their careers.

In 2017, the program will take place from Sunday, May 21 to Friday, June 2. (Fellows are expected to arrive in Europe by Saturday, May 20.) All program costs are covered, including round-trip travel from New York to Europe, European travel, lodging, and food. FASPE Business Fellows travel and share some seminars with Fellows in the FASPE Journalism and Law programs.

FASPE Business is open to American and European MBA and MSC students and those who have received their MBA or MSC degrees between January 2015 and January 2017.
