A True Learning Community

  • My favorite part of the program was the quality and the availability of faculty and staff, as well as the professional development resources available for students through the finance lab, the Center for Student Professional Development (CSPD), and the Investment Society. The program provided me with a variety of transferable skills that help me excel in my current role, such as: financial research, analysis, modeling, budgeting, corporate valuation, asset valuation, trend analysis and financial decision-making.

  • The professors in the cyber security program were so engaging and helpful. A course in digital forensic analysis was my “light bulb” moment, which helped me to decide the career path that I wanted to pursue. I love trying to solve the mystery of what happened – you must keep digging until you can find all the pieces of the puzzle. I’ve decided to continue my studies and pursue a Master of Science in Information Technology with a Cyber Security concentration.
