In recent news, Clark University has partnered with the National Society of Hispanic MBAs University Partnership Program. Created in 2006, the UPP has the goal of providing certain academic institutions, like Clark University’s GSOM where Brad Powers is on the board, with an expanded pool of qualified Hispanic applicants for graduate business programs.
Along with 11 other universities, Clark University’s GSOM has now become a partner with the UPP in this endeavor. As Steve Ramos, interim CEO of NSHMBA said, “At the beginning of this year, NSHMBA really took a hard look at the avenues through which it offers financial assistance to students, and determined that our biggest assets are the universities. Realizing the role universities play, we became very aggressive with our efforts to recruit more universities and position NSHMBA where it needs to be in order to secure better financial support for qualified talent.”
