Yale School of Management United States
Kosmos Energy, Ltd., has established a merit-based scholarship at the Yale School of Management to support students from Africa entering the school’s Master of Advanced Management program, with a preference given to students from Ghana. The Master of Advanced Management is a one-year post-MBA graduate degree program open to students attending a Global Network school.
From the Yale SOM website:
The scholarship will help further broaden the global diversity of the MAM program and develop a pipeline of talent from Ghana. “In the first year of the MAM program, we saw qualified applicants from Ghana who didn’t have the resources to attend,” said David Bach, senior associate dean for executive MBA and global programs at Yale SOM. “With the help of the Kosmos Energy Scholarship, and through our Global Network relationship with University of Ghana Business School, we can establish a steady stream of top MBA graduates to come to Yale for one year, and to then return to Ghana to lead ventures there or in the region with the skills and links they have developed.”
