Reputation and network
heavily inuenced my decision
to attend Emorys Evening MBA
Program. Emorys brand is
an asset not easily replicated.
And as an evening student,
your classmates have current
connections to their industry
and company you are building
and expanding your proessional
network rom Day One.

With strong support rom Goizueta
aculty members, I decided an
entrepreneurial route would be mo
rewarding or me than a traditional
career path. As a student, I was abl
to compete in industry-sponsored
research and case competitions
and interact with alumni to quickly
grow my network o proessional
connections to validate my busines
model. The decision to start my ow
business was incredibly difcult
given the risk, but having control o
my proessional and personal lie is
priceless.
Having worked in IT or almost six
years, I wanted to move into fnance
in the pursuit o new challenges and
better career prospects. I ully expect-
ed an uphill battle given that I had
no prior proessional experience in
fnance. Ater thorough research into
various MBA programs, I became convinced that Emorys Evening MBA
was by ar my best bet. Not only did Goizueta boast outstanding fnance
proessors, but the Emory Center or Alternative Investments served as a
perect opportunity to gain experience in the world o high fnance. Ow-
ing to the top-notch training, invigorating classroom discussions, per-
sonalized attention, and strong network, I was able to transition into my
dream job while still in school. Today I serve as a buy-side analyst or
a $400 million global fxed income und. What a dierence my Emory
MBA has made in my lie.
