Summits are quarterly, in-person immersive experiences that bring you face-to-face with classmates and faculty, both in Chapel Hill and within various international business hubs. Many students cite Summits as one of the most valuable aspects of their learning experience, providing the chance to foster deeper connections and engage in intensive learning over the course of a three-day weekend. Summits are the perfect space to truly engage with your peers and mentors within the program, giving you the opportunity to form strong relationships with business leaders, faculty and fellow students alike. *Starting in January 2026, all new students are required to attend an in-person Orientation when starting the program and a Summit within their first year.
