“The value of the Fisher MBA experience extends far beyond the simple technicalities of lectured content. The experience challenges typical thought through open and engaging discussions in the classroom, nurturing original ideas. It exercises soft skills to stabilize muscle memory through guided real-life projects, which opens doors to leadership beyond analytics. Finally, it supports the autonomy of choice to create an authentic career path, not in the hopes that it might happen, but in the belief that it will happen and thus, becomes a partnership in creating the "how" of your future. Is it easy? No. Is it worth it? Absolutely.”
