Duke MMS Student Blog

I am genuinely impressed by how Fuqua’s community-focused approach quickly transformed a diverse group of individuals into a close-knit cohort and supportive friends.

It’s definitely fun to hang out with a group of people different from those in your program, as you get to learn different perspectives, opinions and lots of ideas.

When I decided to travel to Durham at the start of the MMS program, I swore to myself that I will get out of my little bubble of comfort.

When life becomes a bumpy ride, real friends are always by your side. Through good times and bad, mixing with people from different cultures was never a challenge for me.

Great friendships are built over shared empathy...and pizza.

I kept researching universities and planning my future, and the words got lost in time. For me, the right time came in July of 2020. But that is something I know only in hindsight.
