Post-master’s career goal:
I would like to explore job opportunities in the field of consulting after completing my business school. I would like to be a consultant in industries such as technology, manufacturing or supply chain.

Why choose Wisconsin?
MSBA program at Wisconsin School of Business has an applied learning approach that makes it easy to imbibe knowlege by simultaneously learning by doing. Moreover I was keen on advancing my professional pathway towards consulting and UW Madison’s MSBA program exactly provides guidance through its career seminar’s specific to consulting. Additionally I like sports specifically Table Tennis and UW Madison not only has their own TT club but they also compete in NCTTA.

Advice:
The advice I would give to a prospective student would be to look and aim for specifics to have a lucid view. For instance, I’m looking for a career in consulting specifically in Tech industry, so I looked for elements or subjects that would help in pioneering my career towards consulting. This way the decision making becomes much easier. The prospective student would not only stay aligned with what the program has to offer but also how it can help them achieve their goals. Also, I’d suggest not just to look at academics but also consider picturing a holistic view – co-curriculars, sports, etc. when considering Wisconsin Master’s program.

Fun fact:
I love learning different languages. Apart from English, Hindi, Marathi (native), I can understand basic French and I’m also currently learning Japanese.
