The UNC Kenan-Flagler Difference

At UNC you will learn the skills to be highly effective in your chosen field in the first few years after you graduate. But you also will develop leadership skills that prepare you for long-term success.

Recruiters tell us our students have the knowledge they expect from all of the top global business schools. But they say they come to UNC because our students have an uncommon ability to get things done in their organizations, both as effective leaders and as strong team players. Here’s why:

Critical thinking: You will deepen your knowledge of analytical methods, functions and industries. But more important, you will learn to how ask the right questions and choose the most effective methods to solve problems.

Strategic perspective: You will broaden your knowledge across functions and strengthen your general management skills, so that you learn how to apply that knowledge to tackle complex problems and seize opportunities. And you will develop a thorough understanding of market and industry dynamics so crucial to strategic thought and action.

Leadership: Because great things get done in business by groups of people, you will learn and practice the skills that make you a better leader. You will strengthen your leadership, teamwork and communication skills by actually being the leader, team member and spokesperson in real-world settings where you receive feedback on your planning, coaching and results.
