What Recent Grads Say See All 12 Comments >

-Fordham University provided a great EMBA program. I was sold on the program after meeting the students who didn't seem as competitive and egotistical as some of the other schools in New York. I forged great friendships and had a great time-sharing the experience with my cohort. Overall, the EMBA program is excellent for executives in their thirties or above looking to take their career to the next level. I do not recommend it for people who are a few years out of college who don't have enough professional experience. Most of the students were middle management, had eight to 12 years of work experience, and brought a lot of personal knowledge to the classroom.

Technology Improvements
  • The launching of the Fordham University portal was the largest technological improvement in Fordham IT. With a single sign-on (username/password) into the portal, students/faculty/staff can access different services available to the user. No more going to different websites to access various information. Moving the email system to Gmail was another change. Fordham IT no longer has to maintain large amount of hardware and storage to host the email system. Those resources can be redirected to other us
