University At Albany Weekend MBA Program

As a cohort member of the Weekend MBA program Class of 2011, I can say first hand that this experience was phenomenal! I was able to network and build on my business knowledge through this well structured program while maintaining a full time job with my company. While I was among the younger ones of my cohort, I was able to learn so much from my peers as well as the professors that were in our two year line up. This program is definitely set up in a way where you get out what you put into it. I was able to walk away feeling more confident in my business capabilities as well as a network of business executives that I would not have been able to obtain elsewhere.
What sets this program apart from other MBA programs I was considering was the the intimate feel you get as a cohort as well as the international trip taken between your first and second year. We truly became a family not only among our peers but our professors and those that managed the program. We always had meals, snacks, coffee, drinks readily available for us at any given time and our food preferences were always kept in mind.
For anyone looking for a great MBA experience that comes with support while juggling your career and family life, don’t count this program out. This was one of the best decisions I have ever made and I highly recommend this program.

An excellent way to further your education and still maintain your busy work schedule. The staff goes out of their way to accommodate every need you might have. From fresh coffee to meals, to providing you with all the books and materials you’ll need. Your peers are fellow executives from various sectors, so the education is also through peer interaction. The highlight is the international trip taken towards the end of the program. Very well organized-​you are taken to relevant business destinations that are anything but arbitrary. Overall, I made excellent connections, lifelong friends, and a degree that enhances my professional endeavors.
