Tuck School of Business – Dartmouth College
History
Founded in 1900, the Tuck School of Business, the first official graduate school of management in the world, is one of the three prominent professional schools affiliated with Dartmouth College. It was established after Dartmouth received a generous donation from 19th century financier and philanthropist Edward Tuck, creating the Amos Tuck School of Administration and Finance, named for Edward’s father. In 1941, it was renamed as the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration, and then later its current iteration—the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth.

Dean Slaughter on How Tuck Programs Suit Military VeteransMatthew J. Slaughter, the Paul Danos Dean of the Tuck School and the Earl C. Daum 1924 Professor of International Business, discusses how the Tuck MBA program and the school’s other business education offerings are well-suited for students with military backgrounds. "Veterans bring a direct experience and gravitas from the way that they've thrived in the military that has a direct parallel to the kind of learning we do at the Tuck School," he says. | TuckGO: Global Opportunities at TuckWith TuckGO, the world is your classroom.
