MUM's CAPSIM Teams Finish in the Top 10    
The CAPSIM Foundation Simulation is an online business simulation with participating teams from colleges and universities throughout North America.  In the past three years MUM has had one or more MBA accounting teams that have placed in the Top 10, competing against some of the best business schools in North America.

Our students' success in the CAPSIM Foundation Simulation validates the quality of our students' skills in integrated decision-making and shows the readiness of our MBAs to compete successfully in the marketplace. This is especially notable with respect to the high percentage of international students with diverse cultural backgrounds in our MBA programs at MUM.
