Why choose Wisconsin MBA?
The specialized MBA was a top priority for me because I knew I wanted to have a career in consumer insights. The faculty, staff, and other students are all there to support you and help you work towards the career you want. Wisconsin also has a vast network of alumni that are happy to connect with you and give back to the program. After talking with recent graduates of the program, they did a good job of convincing me Wisconsin was the perfect fit to catapult me into the career I want.

Advice:
Talk with alums and current students about their experiences and visit campus if you can! Madison is a lot of fun and has a lot to offer. I would also look into the specializations and see which one would be the best fit for your future career.

Fun fact:
After the last Winter Olympics, I learned how to curl!
