Faculty Exchange
The INSEAD-Wharton Centre for Global Research and Education encourages the exchange of faculty across the two schools.
The Faculty Exchange includes a variety of both long term and short term opportunities for faculty to spend time on the campus of the other school. The objective is to enhance knowledge-building capacity and to promote and facilitate joint research and teaching efforts. The Alliance finances travel expenses and living costs for the faculty member on the exchange.
Short term visits (STV) of up to four weeks encourage exploratory visits to the other school in order to establish research contacts with a view to enhancing research productivity. In addition to these visits, faculty members are invited to present their research during seminars and colloquia at the other school. Over 70 faculty members have visited the partner school to teach or carry out research
MBA Exchange
The INSEAD-Wharton MBA exchange is a unique large-scale exchange of MBA students between two world class MBA programs. The opportunity for INSEAD and Wharton MBA participants to spend one period of study at the other school has been a key feature of the Alliance. The Alliance provides a unique learning experience and students benefit from the alliance by:
- Participating in a top MBA program on a different continent (learning about different cultural and business practices via academic curriculum, student group work, guest speakers)
- Getting full access to the Career Management Services of the partner school for the duration of stay (job board, career counsellors, industry guides, alumni database, mock interviews)
- Enriching their personal network through a vibrant social life and a rapid system of integration (buddy system, participation in student clubs)

PhD Student Exchange
The Doctoral Student Exchange has become an integral part of the Alliance and has resulted in high quality joint research work, some of it leading to presentations at major field conferences and publications in top journals.
