Davis MBA Student Shares Experience
Amber Lewis is a full-time MBA student at the UC Davis Graduate School of Management. She will graduate this spring from the program.

Students work with a company to serve as consultants on projects that will help to students to hone their business management skills that they have learned in the program. “It is an opportunity that I would not necessarily have gotten at another school, but because of our relationship with the community, the school was able to facilitate that, which is a phenomenal opportunity to apply my classroom learning outside of the classroom,” Lewis said.
