My experience of the MBA program at UNC
There's a good balance among the academic program, leadership development activities and social life. The professors are leaders in their respective areas of research, and they are highly accessible to the students.
The UNC Kenan-Flagler network
As I have explored my career options, I have had the chance to engage with alumni. I continue to explore non-banking, finance career paths and have found the alumni community invaluable. Each alumnus is approachable and extremely willing to take the time to speak with me and offer help in any way he/she can.
