Duke MQM Student Blog

The India and Pakistan Independence Day celebration event enabled me to meet the individuals who are presently my closest friends in the MQM program.

Here is a glimpse into the bits and pieces of my everyday life as a Master of Quantitative Management (MQM) student.

The Business Communication and Data Visualization classes helped me to spend more time thinking and practicing how to present data analytics results.

My Capstone Project was consulting for the Duke University Baseball team.

I have always been passionate about engaging in extracurricular activities and serving in whatever community I find myself.

I knew the words Fuqua and Friday, but separately, not as a term “Fuqua Friday.”

The Spring Term 1 Master of Quantitative Management (MQM) Competition is a data visualization competition where students use data to communicate and analyze problems. Alongside my teammates, Yiqi He and Selina Zhou, I participated in the competition to explore racial disparity in the United States.

We were the first set of students to ever complete the degree online. COVID and its by-products were threatening to define our final experiences at Duke’s Fuqua School of Business.

The 2020 MQM program career report showed success, similar to past years. This was a victory given pandemic-related declines in hiring.

Graduating during the pandemic after completing my master’s degree from my bedroom was certainly not how I pictured my final moments in the MQM program. However, those last few months brought forth a unique learning experience.
