Duke Daytime MBA Student Blog

Fuqua offered me a safe environment to take risks and move outside my comfort zone.

I aimed to pivot from consulting to marketing, which I was successfully able to do. However, an MBA at Fuqua not only facilitated this transition but allowed me to explore alternative career interests, such as venture capital.

Dreaming is simple, but fear and discomfort often set in when turning our dreams into reality.

Passionate about the impact we could make in our respective fields, we came to Fuqua looking for meaningful opportunities to make a difference.

I am grateful for learning opportunities like having guest speakers in class and attending conferences to hear from the world’s foremost thought leaders tackling the world’s greatest climate problems.

While I initially struggled to build a strong community at Fuqua, I eventually found my home here.

As students at Fuqua, we embrace what makes us unique.

When I was applying to business schools, I knew that one of the main reasons I was getting an MBA was to pivot into marketing.

Your Fuqua experience is all about what you put into it.
