Alumni Perspective
“It has been 10 years since I received my undergraduate degree in engineering. Due to many obligations, I didn’t think that I would have time to pursue a master’s degree as I had desired. The UALR Executive MBA was a perfect fit for me. The program was both challenging and rewarding. The alternate weekend class schedule worked well for me, and the extra bonus was the international experience. Upon completion of the program I was immediately promoted, and the benefits continue to be helpful in my career. I would strongly recommend this program to anyone looking to gain the tools needed to be successful!”

The classroom schedule and structure allowed me to attend class and continue working in a reasonable amount of time. Admission to the program was a gateway to a whole new world.”
