Broad Business Perspective


Why Olin?

A sense of belonging really matters to me. When I was researching business schools, Olin students and admission staff were warm, welcoming and kind. The small class size, scholarship opportunities, and the global immersion program really stood out, so I knew I had to apply!

Global Outlook

My most cherished part of Olin is the international exposure available. The global immersion program in Europe and South America and the Venture Consulting course in Israel were unique and one-of-a-kind experiences that allowed me and my classmates to learn on the ground through client projects and build a broader business perspective.

Dedicated Professors

I absolutely love the professors here at Olin. As an international student with an engineering and creative background, I was initially hesitant about pursuing core MBA courses like accounting and economics. But right from day 1, the professors helped us build expertise step by step through assignments and case discussions. They foster a very inclusive class discussion culture that encourages different perspectives and opinions to be heard and cherished.

Fun Fact

Despite my background in engineering, I took a leap of faith and transitioned to become a producer at Warner Bros and Disney. This pivot helped me build an acumen to blend problem-solving with logic and creativity, always keeping the needs of target customers and users front and center.

Problem-Solving Skills

Olin offers really interesting courses led by exceptional professors who deeply value cultivating our problem-solving mindset. Through compelling real-life examples and business scenarios, they prompt us to critically analyze and explore different factors that influence business and market dynamics.
