Student Perspective

EMBA student testimonials
George Carystinos, WG'08

“We had exceptional professors; they made a big difference. …These are exceptional, bright people who are involved in their industries and have a lot of insight about the practical applications of what they’re teaching. It’s very easy to learn a lot from them — and not just academics. They also have a lot of experience.”
