A GLOBALLY RESPECTED BRAND ERIC NYMAN

MBA ’97General Manager, USA Hasbro, Inc.

“ I would not be in the position I’m in today without my BC MBA. The alumni connections I made at BC led to two great internships—one with the Boston Celtics and one at Dunkin’ Donuts—and to a full-time job at Lego. Today I’m at Hasbro, where I work with brands I’ve loved since I was a kid. Boston College set me up for a successful career, and now I’m able to provide professional opportunities for today’s BC students.”

SIOBHAN SKIZIM MBA ’14Finance Director, Fidelity Investments

“ My experience at Boston College helped me develop strong skills in analysis, presentation, and leadership, so I felt very well prepared for my summer internship with the leadership program at Fidelity Investments. And when the internship led to a full-time offer at Fidelity, I felt very confident going into the workplace.”

RONNIE SADKA Seidner Family Faculty Fellow Professor and Chairperson, Finance Department

“ All of us on the Carroll School faculty bring our own industry and research experience into the classroom, so the education here is not just theoretical but also practical. We’re also constantly updating what we teach in response to marketplace trends to prepare our students for their next career move.”

CAREER OUTCOMES Unique specializations and concentrations give BC MBA students the tools they need to refine their skills, build their personal brands, gain a new level of

confidence, and launch dynamic careers.

PROFESSION-READY EXPERIENCE The MBA program incorporates extensive opportunities for professional experience, including year-long internships that often lead directly to full-time employment. BC also invests in MBA students by bringing experts to campus to lead practical case-based workshops, participate in panel discussions, and

speak directly to students.

STRATEGIC THINKING Students at the Carroll School learn strategic frameworks and how to use them to solve today’s business challenges. What’s more, BC students can gain a competitive edge in today’s cross-functional business world through a dual-degree program. The MBA/MSF, for example, provides deep insights into highly quantitative and analytical topics in finance—and can be completed in two years.

At Boston College, we know what employers want and need, and we make sure our MBA graduates can deliver it. We offer personalized career advising to help our students forge valuable connections and set a path for the future. Our students graduate with all the tools they need to land their first job—and to become visionary leaders and industry icons.

“ My BC Part-Time MBA helped me make a smooth transition from active duty in the military to a professional civilian environment. My experience in collaborating with classmates from a variety of professional backgrounds demonstrated to my employer that I had the skills I needed to operate at a high level with international customers who have complex needs.”

MARILYN ECKELMANAssociate Dean for Graduate Programs and Career Development

“ We have an exceptionally high placement rate for both internships and jobs, and it all starts with individualized career advising.
