Darden’s inaugural Part-Time MBA Class of 2025 recently finished their core classes. During the first 18 months of their MBA experience, the class moves through the core together. Now, as they enter the elective period, they have more flexibility on when to complete their MBA.
Before going their separate ways, the class took a trip to Darden grounds in Charlottesville for Residency 2 (R2): Organizational and Individual Change. The week was filled with courses, tours, resume workshops and a ropes challenge course before the closing dinner at King Family Vinyards.
Here are some highlights the students captured during their time in Charlottesville:
