About Wharton School

Established in 1881, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania stands as the world's first collegiate business school, a distinction that underscores its enduring legacy of innovation and leadership in business education. Located in Philadelphia, the school's architecture reflects a blend of historical significance and modern ambition. Huntsman Hall, a prime example, offers 324,000 square feet of technologically advanced learning space, fostering collaboration through its state-of-the-art classrooms and meeting areas. Steinberg Hall-Dietrich Hall embodies the school's respect for tradition while embracing progress with its classic design integrated with contemporary renovations. Wharton’s commitment to cutting-edge research is further demonstrated in facilities like the Wharton Academic Research Building, featuring a distinctive brick and glass exterior overlooking the revitalized Woodland Walk. These buildings collectively create an environment where future leaders are molded, and where Joseph Wharton's founding vision of applying analytical expertise to drive societal advancement remains the core ethos.
