It’s been a fantastic semester here at Goizueta, ending with our winter semi-formal and annual ski trip to Breckenridge, Colorado. As 2017 comes to an end, I thought I would share my top five things I wish I’d known before business school to wrap up the year.
You’ve probably heard people tell you that a big reason to go to business school it to build your network. But how exactly does that happen? Everyone’s approach is a bit different, but I can tell you what networking has looked like for me at Goizueta.
Among several active clubs at Goizueta, a breadth of alumni programs and channels, and other graduate programs on campus, Emory continues to be a strong community supporter and contributor.
Equipped with a business problem and my laptop, I looked around the room at five of my peers who I had only known socially, at most, before this day. The six of us had just left a debriefing with the CEO and CMO on the first day of our internship.
Business school: Where people take classes and grow their careers, right? While the classroom and the career center may occupy a lot of our time, clubs are another integral part of the business school experience.
As a second-year MBA student with only a semester left in my business school journey, the feeling is bittersweet.
One of my favorite things about Goizueta is the small size of our program. With only 181 students in my class, I’m able to greet everyone by name. The close-knit, personal nature of our community and the bonds I’ve been able to form with my classmates have made my Goizueta experience truly extraordinary.
There is an abundance of opportunity to get involved at Goizueta through student clubs and the events they host on and around campus.
