The MBA Program at Millikin gave me a chance to expand my theoretical knowledge of business while further developing my professional expertise through my Graduate Assistantship. I am eternally grateful for the experiences gained in and out of class that enabled me to land my first job out of college.

I always knew I wanted to be an athletic coach. What I didn't know is that I would need more than just the sports knowledge to help me reach my goals. My experience at Millikin as a Graduate Assistant while in the MBA program gave me more than enough knowledge and experience to learn what it will take to be successful in my field.

The Millikin MBA was a positive and rewarding experience. The dedicated professors introduced new and challenging business concepts, while the cohort environment further developed my interpersonal skills. Before completion of the program, I was offered and accepted a promotion based in Minneapolis, MN. In this new management role I am able to apply lessons and experiences from the Millikin MBA.

The Millikin MBA Program was a topnotch experience. It nurtured me to consider investing in my greatest asset…ME! My greatest joy with the Millikin MBA experience was the “Final Business Plan Capstone.” Seeing what was once just a few notes onto paper, turn into strategic goals with supporting marketing channels, to consumer trends, gave me that additional leg-up to excel and survive as an aspiring entrepreneur and professional leader.

Millikin’s Executive MBA program exceeded my expectations. It was a phenomenal experience for professional development and personal growth. The professors and mentors are well versed in the variety of topics we covered. The cohort environment was interactive and made the program even better. As an Engineer, this program makes me a well-rounded candidate for further management opportunities. Before graduation, I took a new role within Cargill as the Operations Manager for Lecithin.
