Consulting uses a creative process of design thinking to go for top-line growth. What Booth offered me was a possibility of taking all flexible courses, which made me tailor the MBA to my needs and what I wanted to develop. So in my case, I took courses that are related to consumer understanding and development of new products. My favorite courses at Booth are Managing Organizations and Development of New Products and Services.

You’ve got to work with a real company. We’re going through the process of coming from the needs to the ideas to finally coming with a final product. Since you choose whatever course you want to take, you are always knowing new people in the classes. You get to know people with similar interests. They are very passionate about what they want to do. I love doing sports. I’m the soccer coach here and it’s been a great experience. We played three MBA tournaments. We won two of them. I was impressed with the amount of new friends I have from all over the world. When coming here, it’s adapting to the new culture and being a student again. The whole community at Booth was very, very helpful. People here at Booth are truly interested in your well-being. They’re really committed into your success.
