Harvard Business School, officially named the Harvard Business School: George F. Baker Foundation, and also known as HBS, is one of the graduate schools of Harvard University.
The school was founded in 1908 with an initial class of 59 students in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
In the 1920s, the class size reached 500 students. In 1927, the School moved across the Charles River to its present location in Allston (part of Boston) - hence the custom of faculty and students of referring to the rest of Harvard University as "across the river." Women were first admitted to its regular two-year Master of Business Administration program with the Class of 1965. The dean of HBS is Jay O. Light, who was appointed by then University President Lawrence Summers on April 24, 2006.
The school offers a full-time MBA program, a doctoral program and many executive education programs, but does not offer an 'Executive MBA'. The School owns Harvard Business School Publishing , which publishes business books, online management tools, teaching cases and the monthly Harvard Business Review.
