Duke MMS Student Blog

I discovered that stepping out of my comfort zone made me more adaptable — and I loved it!

Fuqua is a place where we are inspired to draw on our diverse backgrounds to enrich every class and conversation, allowing me to channel my growth mindset and values every day.

On my very first day at Fuqua, I had the opportunity to meet my four incredible teammates, each bringing unique perspectives from around the world.

Being part of the MMS: Duke Kunshan University (MMS: DKU) program at Fuqua has been a life-changing experience.

At Fuqua, we strive to create a community that reflects the world’s rich diversity of cultures, experiences, and perspectives.

As a student-led organization supporting first-generation and low-income students, LIFE gave me a sense of belonging I hadn’t realized I was missing.

As students, it’s easy to let our responsibilities overshadow the simple, meaningful moments in life. My time at Fuqua so far has shown me that it is possible to achieve professional goals while having fun.

Reflecting on my time at Fuqua, I'm grateful for the inclusive and supportive environment that has enriched my academic and personal growth.
