STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
I have met so many talented professional students at Katz—every networking opportunity is a chance to learn more about the unique businesses serving the Pittsburgh area, as well as a chance to gain knowledge and insight into what other classmates do. There’s learning everywhere at Katz—not just in the classroom.
Katz provides networking and career guidance early in the MBA process. The impressive number of events and case competition help me represent the school and keep me involved. Katz’s focus on Experience-based Learning gives real-world context to concepts learned in class.
