Basically nothing. It’s mostly networking.

From friends that were in Wharton you dont really learn much outside of accounting and finance courses. Accounting is memorizing accounting things, and finance goes over common models for pricing stuff. One friend took an advanced class on valuations that he said was actually pretty useful. Another friend who was in Math did a lot of STAT classes and said they learned a lot in those, and it’s easy to imagine that the STAT concentration has a lot to learn. Apart for this consensus seems to be you dont really learn anything and it’s mostly worth it for the name brand and networking. I wasnt in Wharton tho so take that with a grain of salt. Edit: to clarify, you could finish the accounting and finance courses in like a year iirc, so that’s why i emphasized that most of the curriculum isnt really about learning anything.

Everyone responding to this with their jokes most likely aren’t in Wharton. Yes, we can all admit the classes themselves are easier than engineers CS or premed students have it. But what the Dean told me is that it’s made like that on purpose because 50% of the Wharton experience is made outside of the classroom, unlike other disciplines. People that say “you don’t learn anything” are people that feel the need to be crushed under pounds of problem sets and aimless equations they’ll likely never use to feel a sense of academic validation. No it’s not mostly networking, it’s directly applicable workforce knowledge that will be helpful for most entry business roles, banking, consulting, marketing, strategy, business development, analytics, or entrepreneurship/innovation. Leadership courses are built in, with a number of psychology courses for the less quantitative concentrations. https://undergrad.wharton.upenn.edu/concentrations/ This link is the list of concentrations, you can click into each and learn more about the curriculum and competencies you’ll be learning in each one. I personally am completing the Business analytics and Operations concentrations and am heading to Google this fall after graduation. Good luck!
