The second blog dove into the network that students gain during their TMMBA program.

Todd Cota comments,

“For me, you meet a group of people that are in your same position, so you can talk to them about what their career goals. More recently, we’ve leveraged from a recruiting perspective as well, both at TMMBA and the other MBA programs. So I think the network is…it’s amazing.”

Throughout the blog, the panelists discussed how the Husky network not only helped them on the professional side to gain new jobs or positions but also provided value from a mentoring perspective.

The third blog discussed how MBAs could leverage the knowledge they gained in the program. For Bhaskar, the knowledge he gained had a significant impact on his career.

“Some of the classes I’ve been able to use most in my career have to do with leadership and driving organizational change. That’s one of the big parts of my job right now. Going back to those notes and thinking about how these things have been done in other companies in the past has really helped me.”
