Our story began when co-founders, Dale Jarosz and Dhruv Dhawan, met during their full-time MBA at the University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business. Immersive global experiences were the most transformational part of their MBA curriculum, collectively participating in 6 global courses and visiting 10+ countries.

However, these global experiences did not come without a few pain points – mostly centered around affordability, flexibility, and consistency of quality industry engagements. Unfortunately, these elective courses were not accessible to many of their classmates due to the high sticker tag. They also noticed an inconsistent experience across program destinations and were frustrated by the lack of flexibility and customization during the process.

After completing a thorough analysis of the educational travel market, they noticed a few key takeaways. Most importantly, was that the majority of educational travel provider’s core competencies were in non-business-related fields of study, such as language immersions, arts & humanities, and research & science. Business programs were often an afterthought. The travel providers who did specialize in business education were unfortunately limited in reach, typically only operating in one or two countries.

They sought to fix this problem and in 2018, officially launched Bschool Travel, a business-centric travel provider with global reach. Through their own experiences as students, they understood what drove learning development outside the classroom and what key features students were looking for during global experiences.

Today, Bschool Travel supports over 30 university partners across the US, Canada, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. We operate in over 100 countries and have a global partner network of 2500+ organizations.
