Campus

Bentonville, Arkansas.

Our campus is being built on the site of the former Walmart Home Office — a place that has shaped how the modern world moves goods, makes decisions, and works at scale. We think it is exactly the right ground for what we are trying to build next.

Why Northwest Arkansas

A region with deep operating expertise across supply chain, retail, logistics, and an expanding base of advanced industry. Real problems live nearby — and the students working on them will too.

A residential community

Small by design. Students live on campus and learn together — the kind of density that makes hard collaboration possible.

Built with the city

Bentonville is a partner, not a backdrop. Coursework draws on local industry, civic institutions, and the cultural fabric of the region.
