TECHNOLOGY
Technology improvements in the last three academic years:
Van Munching Hall, home to the Smith School, is one of the most technologically advanced business school buildings in the world. In 2008, a 38,000 square foot North Wing addition to Van Munching Hall opened. It houses four state-of-the-art classrooms, four conference rooms, and 10 student/team rooms and an executive meeting space equipped with a NASDAQ ticker. Recent upgrades to the original Van Munching Hall include the addition of video cameras, instructor touch panels, AV controls, and projection units. Other technology improvements include: a Mac Lab equipped with 20 iMac computers with 24” monitors and Adobe Creative Suite 3 and other media applications, along with scanners and printers. Many of our netcentric laboratories were upgraded. In the Supply Chain Lab, we now have the first Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) technology. In the Finance Lab, we added thin client hardware and now all finance applications are available via the Web. (Reuters Financial Certification is available.) The Behavioral Lab’s addition of an Audio Visual Lab is equipped with a Tobii eye tracker, along with audio and video capabilities to record team interactions and a large display screen to review and edit recorded data. Students have 1GB of e-mail and file storage space allotted to them and the Postini spam filter is in use. Smith uses PSync to allow a single sign on to access all UM online resources. A new Smith School Web site was launched in 2008 and video podcasts are available online and via iTunes. MBA Networth is the online community of practice for students. It includes course schedules, program announcements, classroom applications, virtual library, upcoming events, online directory and personal profiles. New improvements this year include student club sign up and work flow applications. This allows students to edit their profiles and sign up for specific clubs. The club memberships are permanently recorded in their profiles. Students are able to use the school’s CVENT online event management system to manage their club events. Turning Point software is installed in all classrooms allowing students to participate in classroom instruction using clickers for real-time results. In the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C., the Smith space was renovated and upgraded and all class and lab machines were replaced and additional printing services were added along with an upgrade to the wireless network, including the installation of a TLS line. New Bloomberg terminals were installed at the Ronald Reagan building for students to gain access to financial market information. These terminals also support the new Center for Financial Policy. The MySmith portal allows students to gain access to top industry database subscriptions and research applications such as Thomson Reuters, Standard and Poor's, Compustat, IBISWorld, RiskMetrics, DataStream Advance and other popular applications.

SCHOOL COMMENTS
School Comments:
N/A作者: s 时间: 2010-7-20 14:17
Smith does an excellent job with marketing, IT and consulting. It's probably not a great fit if you are trying to get to Wall Street. -- Marketing
I focused too much on my classes, and not enough on the job search and my career aspirations. As a result, I had trouble finding employment. Otherwise, the program was great. -- Finance
Smith's MBA program is challenging, which made me push myself and learn at full capacity. I not only learned from theory, but also from practical experience through guest speakers and mentorships. -- Consulting
The collaborative student body enhanced my understanding of new concepts and allowed me to benefit from the knowledge of my peers. I also felt comfortable approaching my professors, and they would always make time to speak with me about topics covered inside and outside of the classroom. -- Consulting作者: s 时间: 2010-7-20 14:18
The MBA program at Smith taught me how to work well in groups and helped me identify my strengths and weaknesses in the work environment. It also challenged me intellectually, because I took classes outside of my comfort zone in unfamiliar quantitative subjects. -- Consulting
As a career changer, I found the program to be challenging, exciting and very informative. In terms of education, networking and practical learning, I have had a nearly perfect experience at Smith's B-school. -- Finance
My salary more than doubled as a result of my MBA, and I found a position in my preferred field at an excellent local company. But the best thing I received from Smith was the confidence to assert myself in the workplace. -- Consulting
The education you receive at the University of Maryland compares to any program in the country. This is evident in Maryland's tremendous success in national case competitions. Maryland also has great alumni and regional connections in all fields. -- Finance
Smith has a large number of limitations. The quality of faculty is very uneven, ranging from excellent to awful, the facilities could use improvement, and the administration routinely implements programs very poorly. -- Marketing作者: s 时间: 2010-7-20 14:19
The Smith MBA program is a unique experience. It is small enough so that you are able to network with most of the class, yet diverse enough to meet people from all professional and cultural backgrounds. It is definitely a good return on investment compared to what is offered at other programs. -- Finance
Given Smith's current ranking, it�s very difficult to attract the top three consulting firms and investment banks. While some students do get interviews and offers from these firms, they�re mainly through personal efforts and not career services. -- Consulting
I was proud that going to Smith was my first big investment decision, because based on the investment valuation techniques I learned in the MBA program, it was an excellent one. -- Finance
The career services office was a disappointment. I did not receive a lot of advice and coaching, which would have been very helpful since I lacked focus in my job search. -- Finance
The company that I am currently working for recruited me from campus, and my compensation is almost double what I was making before my MBA. -- Information Technology
In addition to a rigorous academic training, we spent a lot of time working on developing our leadership and team spirit. And international students had access to cultural orientation services that helped a lot with settling down. -- Finance
