School of Business

-Wake Forest offers a close community that fosters teamwork and learning. There are only 61 students in my class, so I know all of them very well. Having a class this size allows for more class participation and access to professors outside of class.

-They need to improve their non-core professors. There were several professors I had this year that seemed unprepared and ineffective. There is a significant drop-off in quality of teaching for some of the non-core classes.

-The strong integrated curriculum and emphasis on leadership development separate Wake Forest. In addition, the quality and amount of large prominent employers that visit and hire from campus compare to larger and higher-ranked MBA programs.

-The alumni base, while strong and committed, is smaller than most business schools and thus is not as "deep" in some industries as other comparable institutions.

-Its small class sizes enable us much better access to our professors both in and outside of the classrooms. Because of this, the teachers know you on a more personal level and are able to help you find jobs and succeed during your time at Wake Forest.

-A new business building will greatly help in logistics and teamwork efforts. A stronger focus on consulting courses and practical exercises would help as well.

-For a small and intimate program there is no shortage of activities, electives, notable faculty, and diversity.

-A small school means a small network. The school’s corporate connections are limited in number and are predominantly tied to the southeastern portion of the country. Expand that network in number and geography in working to place students upon graduation.
