I always wanted to launch my own media relations and marketing business. Fuqua gave me the tools and the community I needed.

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.

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

After talking with Fuqua faculty, I knew the dual MEM/MBA degree at Duke University was the perfect place for me to dive deep into the blue economy.

Back when I was applying to Fuqua, I remember there was an essay portion asking you to describe your 5-year and 10-year ambitions.
