| Netherlands, Economics After graduating with a Master’s in Economics from Utrecht, The Netherlands, I felt I needed more practical experience. Professors at UD have a professional background and therefore were able to pass on the type of knowledge I was looking for. Pre-MBA was the perfect introduction to the U.S. educational system and also, provided me with the opportunity to improve my presentation skills. With an MBA from UD, I feel that my education will be better rounded. |

United States, Economics I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin and was unable to locate a job in my desired career field. I joined the Pre-MBA program at the University of Dallas due, in large part, to the recommendations of family and friends who went through this program. The Pre-MBA Program not only enabled me to get into the MBA Program, but also helped me to obtain a Graduate Assistantship position. |
