Duke MQM Student Blog

As an international student who had never been to the U.S., I faced many challenges, and I hope these tips help others thrive at Fuqua.

My time at Duke was life-changing in more ways than one, and while the experience was incredible, I’m most grateful for the friendships I developed along the way.

Together, we’ve navigated academic challenges, explored the vibrant city of Durham, and built a strong support system.

The Fuqua MQM journey is much more than a rigorous academic grind; it's a vibrant tapestry of experiences waiting to be woven with your unique thread.

"Should we build this?" is more than just a question; it's a way of thinking.

The Business, Communication, and Culture (BCC) program was designed to take the guesswork out of the adjustment period and equip our students with the confidence they need for a strong start.

At Fuqua, rechanneling my learnings from improv and rekindling my love for it helped me find my voice in the world of business.

At times when I believed I was failing, I was actually growing, learning, and understanding.

It feels like only yesterday that I stepped into the world of Duke's MQM program, yet it’s astounding how much I have grown since then.
