Community is woven into every aspect of the CBS
experience and is the primary reason I chose Columbia.
It was apparent at my first information session, which
was organized by Cluster Q, the LGBT group on campus.
It was clear that the group was entirely student led,
was highly visible, and had the support of the entire
CBS community. Thats a perfect example of the culture
students here are immersed in from day one: open,
inclusive, and supportive.

THE COLUMBIA CULTURE

CBS Matters is a dedicated forum within your
cluster to discuss what you are most passionate
about. Students give spirited narrative
presentationsranging from light-hearted to
thought-provokingon the question, what matters
to you and why? Youll deepen your relationships
with classmates by discovering common ground and
sharing sources of inspiration.
Diverse, Supportive Community
The warm, lively, supportive energy of Columbias community is infectious. Our
students exchange stimulating business ideas in class or over coffee. They plan
conferences, explore the city with one another, or launch a startup together.
From the opening days of Orientation, our diverse and talented students create
a close community that both values collaboration and promotes the individual.
At Columbia youll find ample opportunity and support to follow your own passion.
Our students are as varied and vibrant as todays global business environment.
They come from nearly 90 nations with backgrounds in virtually every business
sector. You benefit from the experiences and insights of your classmates, and
working closely together in clusters and learning teams, you forge lifelong
personal and professional relationships. You can connect with seasoned
professionals in the Executive MBA Program, too, as well as students in other
prestigious graduate programs across the University.
