Candice Borek

“I don't have to be there for the live classes—I’m listening to it on my phone, on my drive into work. I do my homework during my lunch hour so that I still have plenty of free time with my family when I get home.”

Gloria Ochoa Bruck

“Although my career pathway is not solely in business, my business degree has been an asset. I used my business education to operate my own private practice law firm for 12 years. It also prepared me to work with budgets and financial statements in government operations and (in) sitting on boards of nonprofit organizations.”

Taler Brazell

“It’s teaching me things about being a leader, connecting with different students, and connecting with different soldiers and encouraging them to go back to school. Education in general and the outreaching effects that go beyond academia—I think that's probably the biggest benefit I've seen from getting my MBA.”

Heather Bui

“I've gotten a feel for people who've been in business all their lives, people who work in different industries, or other transitioning military members. Just exposure to other people, and knowing that if I wanted to reach out to people in the future through the Washington State network, I have that opportunity.”

“The time spent pursuing an MBA is well worth it. It's important to further your education so you can work in whatever field you want, wherever you end up. The more education you have, the more qualified you’ll be for different roles. At a school like WSU, you’ll also have a lot of great resources—even while you’re overseas—to help you through the program.”

Kevin Beasley

“The military taught us to go out and utilize concepts, not just memorize things,” said Beasley. “And I think that's the great thing about Washington State—it's not about rote memorization. The educational experience is fully based on your ability to use the concepts you’re taught—to integrate and articulate those concepts in your business environment.”

Debbie Sands

“I took a strategy and leadership course and it changed my outlook on how I approached my work. It helped me apply principles to certain situations and become more effective in completing my work and working with others. And perhaps it will help others see me in a different light that can help me advance.”

Testimonial Estabrook

“Prior to attending WSU, I thought I had a good grasp on working in the global environment. It was only afterward that I really developed a good sense of working in the global landscape. Topics such as operations, finance, and marketing all work differently on a global scale. … As a whole, the WSU MBA prepared me well for facing global challenges in the real world.”
