A brief description of how sustainability is included prominently in new student orientation :
All first-year MBA students receive the "MBA Program Handbook" which prominently covers sustainability topics.
Some examples that are mentioned in the manual:
"Catering services
The school offers a full range of hot and cold meals as well as snacks. IESE supports sustainable food systems through food and beverage purchases, so a “plant-based” menu is offered at every meal. You can check the vegetarian menu of the day on the cafeteria displays."
"IESE has introduced several initiatives related to sustainability, the elimination of single use plastic materials and reduction of food waste. Further information can be found in the following link: Sustainability at IESE (https://www.iese.edu/sustainability-at-iese/) and for the “Save & Go” food waste reduction initiative (through which “surplus food” can be acquired at a reduced price), more information is available at the Cafeteria."
"Printing materials
At IESE over the last decade we have implemented a battery of measures to increase on-campus energy efficiency, reducing energy consumption and being more sustainable. Introducing the shift to digital content the MBA program is getting greener and has implemented a paperless policy on casebooks.
Students have access to all the material through My IESE, for each course. In case you may need a printed version, you can order this by selecting the casebooks you want."
Attached, the latest version of the "MBA Program Handbook"
