SCHOOL COMMENTS
School Comments:
N/A作者: s 时间: 2010-8-27 22:20
The school has one of the best organizational behavior and organizational theory in the world; many of the teachers are self-made millionaires, much better from my point of view than the tenure ones; location is nice - Consulting
There are certain risks in attending Pepperdine: the school is not top tier, and the full-time program is fairly new (1980s) with limited alumni. However, for talented students, Pepperdine offered a complete financial aid package, opportunities to study at top tier schools in their exchange program (I went to IESE Business School in Barcelona), a brand new campus with exquisite technology. Professors that are comparable to the top-tier schools, a management that listens to the students, and an ever increasingly talented student body作者: s 时间: 2010-8-27 22:20
In some companies, MBAs outside of the top tier schools are not considered for employment. Until Pepperdine attains higher rankings, some doors will be closed. This will be an issue for talented graduates, but there are ways to mitigate the problem - ensure international experience at top ranked school, build networks of others, etc. - Marketing
The program is definitely an excellent one with a very good reputation in the western region. Our students compete and participate in competitions and activities with other reputed and higher ranked regional schools effectively. The school was also placed 4th in the International John Molson Case competition program. - Finance作者: s 时间: 2010-8-27 22:21
Pepperdine is on the up and up, but still needs some help in on-campus recruiting. . . The student body brought a really interesting mix of experience. I would give them credit for bringing in really NICE people. The program seems to breed people who like to work hard together and party hard together. Recently (2004-05), Pepperdine founded a local chapter of Challenge for Charity - an organization of west coast MBA programs - which is already fostering more connections between it and the other programs on the coast. Due to the size of the fully-employed program compared to the full-time program, most alums (who are grads of the FE program) don't feel the tie to Pepperdine that the full-time alums do. - Consulting
It has great networking opportunities and great alumni ties. -- Finance作者: s 时间: 2010-8-27 22:22
Pepperdine has a small, yet competitive MBA program in which students are able to build relationships with the faculty and staff while receiving a quality b-school education. This setting, I believe, is a perfect environment in which my friends and colleagues would flourish, gaining not only technical and academic knowledge, but also relational and networking know-how.--Accounting
I'm a portfolio manager. The finance classes were the most important for me and my career path. The finance education that I received was top notch. The instructors all had relevant experience and were all still actively "plugged" into the program.--Finance
