The event should last about two hours. You can expect a presentation on Berkeley/Haas followed by a question and answer session.

If you attend, feel free to post a summary here of your impressions of the presentation and what you learned.

hi Hjort,
Thanks for religiously carving out a forum to describe all the good bschools.
I wanted to know specific details about Haas, such as the program it specializes in. What aspect of your personality does it stress upon.

Regards,
Ambrish

The strongest specializations of UCB Haas are probably technology and entrepreneurship. It is also quite strong in real estate, health care, and not for profit management. Haas has some presence in global management but is easily outclassed by the ultra elites and top cluster Europe schools.

Two prominent themes are Innovation and Social Impact. Innovation arises from the research tradition of the University of California as well as the location near the SV.

Would love to see some of the ranking updates for UC Berkeley in the 06 time frame. It looks as though Haas is quickly climbing the ranks, reaching #8 in both BW and US News for 2006.
