Administrative Departments (15%)
Responsible for promoting the Wharton brand to running academic centers and interfacing with alumni, administrative departments continue to be the fuel that keeps Wharton running.
Doctoral Student Aid (15%)
The School’s 150 doctoral students are fully funded from admission to dissertation and partially supported by unrestricted aid.
Centers and Research (14%)
From Wharton People Analytics and Wharton Interactive, to research centers like the Learning Lab and the Behavior Change for Good Initiative, Wharton’s research and centers ensured the School remained a hub for global thought leaders.
Student Programming (11%)
Experiential and remote learning opportunities, including MBA Leadership, were woven into the framework of a Wharton degree.
Facilities (10%)
With campuses in both Philadelphia and San Francisco, investments were made into maintenance and facility upgrades from coast to coast.
Technology and Digital Resources (7%)
The School’s technology infrastructure kept the Wharton community connected and engaged as they navigated hybrid learning and work environments.
