“My program’s curriculum has taken me through every area of business to develop a well-rounded knowledge of core business concepts. Then, I had the freedom to take marketing-specific classes that piqued my interest. Through my classes, I have had the amazing opportunity to work on a variety of projects with fellow students. These real-world projects and class curricula have prepared me for summer internships and for life post-graduation.”
