MIP Only at Stanford Opportunities

Stanford Ignite is offered through the Stanford Graduate School of Business (GSB). This certificate program teaches innovators to formulate, develop, and commercialize their ideas. Students are exposed to both the fundamentals of business, and the practical aspects of identifying and evaluating business ideas and moving them forward. Ignite uniquely combines current graduate students and entrepreneurs with innovators, scientists, and engineers from leading companies. MIP students can apply for summer or winter quarter.

Stanford's Design School (or d.school) builds on methods from across the field of design to create learning experiences that help people unlock their creative potential and apply it to the world. The d.school's project-based and experiential classes bring together students from all seven schools at Stanford to collaborate and tackle real-world challenges. MIP students can take classes at the d.school that will count towards their degree.

The DA is a postgraduate professional school dedicated to preparing talented students for international careers and positions of leadership in international affairs.
