Classes meet in the state-of-the-art Executive Hall, an innovative space that inspires team learning, idea sharing and collaboration.

At Bloch, our graduate programs offer outstanding centers of excellence, networking opportunities and mentors to help students succeed.

OUR BENEFACTOR

The Bloch School bears the name of Henry W. Bloch, co-founder of H&R Block and one of the world’s foremost entrepreneurs. Bloch has been deeply committed to the school’s success. With the help of his $32 million gift, the school expanded and built the Henry W. Bloch Executive Hall for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, which has become a model for schools nationwide.

The architectural curves of Bloch Executive Hall underscore a popular saying at the school: “The path of innovation is never a straight line.”
