-My experience at Boston University was extremely positive all around. I was able to use my network of peers almost instantly in order to transition out of a less than ideal job situation into a much more fulfilling one. The diversity of the program exposed me to how "business" concepts are applied in fields other than my own (finance). Anyone looking to broaden their knowledge base or make a career transition would greatly benefit from this program.
