As one of the world’s leading professional services companies, Accenture will work with CGU to develop projects focused on global recruiting’s transformation and a research-and-evaluation project focused on Performance Achievement. Such projects will provide students with real-experience that will give them a competitive edge in the job market.
The Drucker School of Management has launched the Drucker School Global Family Business Institute to provide executive training and development regarding the specific needs of family-run and family-owned businesses.
CGU faculty are widely recognized as leaders in their fields who bring the latest expertise into the classroom and conduct applied research that improves the world. They also work to nurture the next generation of leaders, building close, collaborative working relationships with students to help them develop their own professional reputation while still students. Faculty teach and conduct research across disciplines to look at problems in new ways.
Being part of the highly reputable Claremont Colleges provides CGU students with access to superior resources and services. As a CGU student, one can take classes with many of the 550 faculty members from the colleges, make use of four libraries with more than two million volumes, and get involved in a host of affiliated organizations, programs, and institutes.
CGU is purposefully small. With a median class size of 9, meaning professors are highly accessible. Because CGU is small, it is able to collaborate, innovate, and stay current. Its commitment to cultural and intellectual diversity fosters interaction that leads to novel and creative approaches to issues facing our world.
CGU’s seven schools — each with a unique vision and mission — embrace a transdisciplinary approach to teaching that focuses on applied learning and research.
The Peter F. Drucker and Masatoshi Ito Graduate School of Management prepares leaders with powerful, ethical, and universal management skills, with a focus on being globally-minded and socially conscious. The Drucker School is affiliated with Sotheby’s Institute of Art, Southwestern Law School, and Art Center College of Design.
The School of Social Science, Policy & Evaluation (SSSPE) engages students in holistic, interdisciplinary scholarship to solve real-world problems and enhance society. SSSPE houses two scholastic divisions devoted to this mission: The Division of Behavioral & Organizational Sciences and the Division of Politics & Economics.
The School of Arts & Humanities (SAH) teaches the disciplines of Art, Music, Applied Women’s Studies, Cultural Studies, English, History, and Religion, creating a unique educational environment designed to promote disciplinary depth and flexibility.
The School of Community & Global Health (SCGH) is catalyzing a new vision of how humankind conceptualizes and promotes health to improve the quality of life for individuals, families, and communities.
The School of Educational Studies (SES) offers programs in Education and Teacher Education and prepares future educators for the unprecedented challenges facing today’s K–12 and higher education climates.

The Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMS) trains mathematical scientists for positions in education, industry, and government laboratories, and is part of the Claremont Center for the Mathematical Sciences, with more than 60 faculty members spanning all areas of pure and applied mathematics.
The International Scholars Program (ISP) is specially designed for non-native English-speaking international students who are ready for graduate study. It will prepare students for the rigors of graduate study through an integrated cluster of classes that will refine their language, research, and participation skills. ISP is not a typical “language program”; it is designed to help students succeed in graduate-level courses by teaching them about the practices and expectations of American academic and business culture.
Depending upon their level of English proficiency, students will enter at either module 1 or module 2. When they achieve a grade of B or better in all of the courses in their module, students will proceed to the next module. Upon successful completion of the International Scholars Program, students will proceed to their graduate program of study and receive a certificate.
Students must first be admitted to a CGU academic program to be eligible for the International Scholars Program.
