Duke MQM Student Blog

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

When I looked into what Team Fuqua meant, I saw that it was described as a whole that values strong friendship, places great importance on collaboration, and is ready to support each other at all times.

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.

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

I didn't know that everyone is alone together. hough that may sound a bit existential, I soon realized that I wasn’t the only one in the program who left everything behind to attend Duke in hopes of building a better life.

My time abroad and at graduate school at Duke has been a journey of self-discovery, self-love, making family out of strangers, and finding home in new places.
