"As a part of your master's degree, you will invest in your personal strategy for boutique employability. You’ll write a case study that fits your multidimensional core and employ challenge-focused and trust-based storytelling as you generate value with design thinking. Finally, you’ll deliver your case to excite the industry with proven core, trust, and value. This program is designed to be a transformative experience, and I love seeing the students benefit as they follow our process."

Julia Ivy, Executive Professor and Program Director, MS in International Management

"I developed the skills to be more resilient and creative through my graduate project-based work that allowed me to apply my knowledge right away. In one class I wrote a case study on a business owned by a family friend in Barcelona. She’s CEO of a company that builds fire safety systems for companies in 40 countries worldwide. I analyzed whether the company should expand into the South African or U.S. market. At the end of the project, I presented my analysis and recommendations as if I was her consultant. This project wasn’t just a hypothetical exercise—it took my education to a whole new level of realness."

Stephanie Manna, BS in International Business '19, MS in International Management '20

"Get out of your comfort zone. I promise you the personal and professional rewards will be worth it."

Sergio Consuegra, BS in International Business '16, MS in International Management '17
