Duke MQM Student Blog

The data analytics skills learned in the MQM program were a key part of my career development.

I am proud to share how our recent graduates’ resilience paid off in the Class of 2023 MQM Employment Report, plus how alumni are shaping what’s possible for our students.

The MQM program has redefined my professional and personal growth outlook.

While navigating the job market after graduation, I stumbled upon some cool strategies I gained from MQM that totally flipped the job-hunting game.

Being a quantitative researcher is a challenging job where I can leverage the technical skills I gained in the MQM program.

MQM students always have the opportunity to unwind with their classmates, attend activities to refresh after a demanding week and make the most of their time at Fuqua. 

Aided by a job market favoring job-seekers, 2022 was the best year yet in terms of employment outcomes for MQM students.

Now four terms into MQM, I’m excited to share that I secured my first job in tech, and I wanted to share my experience and some tips on how I got to this point!

The past 18 months have been uniquely challenging, given the prolonged effects of the pandemic on workforce trends, but I’m pleased to say the MQM class of 2021 persisted and achieved a strong set of outcomes.

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