The Consortium for Graduate Study in Management was created in 1966 as a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to ensuring the equal representation of African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans in management careers in the business community of the United States of America.〔(Consortium for Graduate Study in Management Official Website - About Us )〕 The Consortium is so named for the collaboration among its staff and board of trustees; its 18 member MBA programs; and its approximately 75 corporate partners, which work together toward the mission "to enhance diversity in business education and leadership by helping to reduce the serious underrepresentation of African Americans, Hispanic Americans and Native Americans in both our member schools’ enrollments and the ranks of management." ==Organization and Operation== The Consortium is a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to increasing African American, Hispanic American and American Indian representation among the ranks of leading MBA programs and corporations throughout the United States. The staff and the organization's headquarters〔(The Consortium for Graduate Study in Management - Staff )〕 are based in Chesterfield, Missouri. Oversight comes by way of a 23-member board of trustees,〔(The Consortium for Graduate Study in Management - Board of Trustees )〕 which is composed of representatives of its member schools, alumni and corporate partners. The Consortium is celebrating its 50th anniversary in the 2015-2016 fiscal year. The organization works with its 18 member schools and their full-time MBA programs to recruit potential MBA students who are African American, Hispanic American, American Indian, or who share The Consortium's commitment to principles of diversity and inclusiveness〔(The Consortium for Graduate Study in Management - Membership Guidelines )〕 in corporate management. Potential Consortium fellows can apply for up to six participating MBA programs through The Consortium and rank their preferred MBA programs. If they are admitted to the program, the MBA programs can award merit-based, full-tuition Consortium fellowships to the students. The recruiting season culminates with The Consortium's annual (Orientation Program & Career Forum ),〔(The Consortium for Graduate Study in Management - Orientation Program )〕 a gathering of 1,200 MBA prospects, university representatives, corporate partner representatives and alumni for an intensive five-day conference of preparatory events, networking opportunities, job interviews and socializing. In 2015, The Consortium recruited a class of 420 MBA students; the organization has more than 8,000 alumni. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Consortium for Graduate Study in Management」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
