Comments from Alumni
“ The MBA program at Framingham State University is truly world class. The whole learning experience, with some of the finest professors and professionals from diverse backgrounds, was enriching and rewarding. I learned the latest management practices and acquired valuable skills that provide me a competitive advantage. ”
-Anup Sharma ‘17, Project Manager, Global IT Consulting
“ I learned an immense amount and found the faculty to be thoroughly engaged in my success and that of my peers. The parameters of the program were challenging, while also flexible with my work schedule, and probably more importantly (as the parent of two small children), my home life. My time at FSU was instrumental in furthering my career and I still maintain contact with many of my fellow FSU alums. Whether you’re a recent graduate entering the workforce, someone in the midst of a career change, a self-employed individual or simply looking at continuing your personal and professional development, I’d strongly recommend that you consider FSU’s MBA program. ”
