It’s becoming increasingly clear that all MBA graduates, regardless of role or industry, will need to understand climate and its broader economic and social implications in their future careers.

I have always been very curious about the skills I would need for a career in private equity, but I came to Fuqua with very little knowledge of the field.

Rather than coming to campus saying “I want to join XYZ club,” think about what you want to gain and stay flexible. There may be even better avenues to accomplish your end goals for an MBA.

Fuqua's partnership with Duke Innovation & Entrepreneurship provides interdisciplinary curricular and co-curricular programming to students across Duke.

I came to Duke’s Fuqua School of Business with the goal of building out my strategy skillset.
