2005 GRADUATE COMMENTS
Stern provides a balanced program with a strong focus on finance. I was extremely impressed with the faculty, the administration, and the level of my colleagues.--Other
The NYU Stern EMBA program is all about enabling you to focus on learning. It does not encourage the cutthroat atmosphere prevalent at other schools. The combination of world-class professors, terrific students, and an extremely supportive administration made the experience rewarding and fun.--Other
The EMBA Program at NYU is designed to make it easy for busy professionals to concentrate on learning. The professors and administrative staff are top notch. The focus is not on whether you meet a deadline but that you actually learn. I also learned a lot from my colleagues, who were willing to share their successes (and failures) with me in a candid manner.--Marketing
The mix of full-time faculty and adjuncts was just right. Each professor taught to their own strengths and weaknesses. The faculty strengths included a positive attitude, up-to-date information, tools, and skills, as well as encouraging participation while making the program a challenge. However, some professors had a tough time teaching at a skill and experience level appropriate for mid-level executives. Also, there were a couple of instances in which the professors were not completely aware of what we had covered (or not covered) previously in the program.--Human Resources
The finance and economics classes were excellent. The law class was a waste of time. The flexibility of the professors was helpful, both in and out of the classroom.--Operations
[Improvements?] I wish we had received even more interaction with outside speakers and guests. When we did have guest lecturers, those classes gave us the opportunity to interact in a small group with experts in the field of management. Overall, this was a great experience.--Marketing
[Improvements?] Stern is a strong local brand but it lacks global recognition. It needs to change its New York-centric attitude to become a true global player.--Other
