哈佛商学院正式推出在线课程

In its beta test, Harvard discovered that the program attracted a much broader group of students than it expected. “We positioned it as a program for Humanities and STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) majors,” explains Bharat N. Anand, faculty chair of HBX, the name of Harvard Business School’s online initiative. “We ended up getting roughly a third from the humanities, a third STEM, and another third from from economics, social science, and business undergraduates. That was the rough breakdown.”

在试运行测试中，哈佛商学院发现，被课程吸引的学生范围要比此前的预期更加广泛。哈佛在线教育平台HBX首席教授巴拉特o阿南德解释说：“我们最初的定位是针对人文科学专业和STEM（科学、技术、工程和数学）专业的学生。最终的结果是，有三分之一的学生来自人文科学专业，三分之一来自STEM，另外三分之一则来自经济学、社会科学和商学专业的本科生。这只是粗略划分。”

In a surprise, 20% of those who enrolled in CORe were graduate students, including students from medical and law schools, and even one PhD in natural science. Almost 20% of the students were international and 40% were women. “When we opened up the website, we were thinking of only rising juniors and seniors, but we also opened it up to rising sophomores because that is the time when students are trying to get themselves in line for internships,” adds Anand.
