Yale School of Management’s shiny new glass building, Edward P. Evans Hall, is expected to facilitate transparency, global learning, and interdisciplinary thinking—all very Yale SOM-ey things. Most important to future classes of aspiring Yalies, the new building enables the program to admit as many as 320 students a year, up from its existing 290. It can also expand the number of students in its Master of Advanced Management program, a one-year degree for MBA students from the Global Network of Advanced Management’s partner schools.

“It depends on the applicants, of course, but if the pool supports it, we can add more students,” says Stanley Garstka, a professor at SOM deeply involved in the development of the new property.
