Tuck School of Business

Founded in 1900, the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration at Dartmouth College is the world's oldest graduate school of management. Located in Hanover, New Hampshire, Tuck offers only one degree program, the MBA.

The school was established by Edward Tuck , and was originally named the Amos Tuck School of Administration and Finance (in memory of his father). In 1941, the name was changed to the Amos Tuck School of Business Administration.

Tuck initially donated $300,000 in the form of 1,700 shares of preferred stock in the Great Northern Railway Company of Minnesota . He later gave $100,000 to build the first Tuck Hall (now McNutt Hall ) in 1901, and over $500,000 for the current Tuck Hall complex in 1929.

The Tuck School was ranked #1 for several years by the Wall Street Journal and The Economist and consistently ranks among the top 10 business schools in the world.
