What Alumni Are Saying

Marketing

The MSM program gives you structure, support, and skills that are hard to find elsewhere in such a short time. It’s intense in the best way, it pushes you, connects you with sharp, driven people, and  leaves you walking away with real confidence in your ability to make an impact. I came in with experience and still walked out sharper, more connected, and more focused than I ever expected.”

Nick, MSM ’25, GTM Strategy Analyst, Hippo Insurance

Information Technology

“Through hands-on projects and deep technical training, I gained the confidence to turn big ideas into innovative solutions, including building a generative AI chatbot blueprint for GTM Ops functions as my Capstone project. Now I apply my MSITM experience at work and lead strategic, tech-driven initiatives that make a difference.”

Regina, MSITM ’24, Program Manager, Amazon

Tech Commercialization

“I was really able to form a lot of bonds with my classmates as well as go to a different country and learn their economy and how business works and how we can apply the skills that we’ve learned throughout our time at MSTC.

The culture is unique and a very exciting one if you take advantage of everything it has to offer.”

-Christianna, MSTC ’25 

Professional Accounting

“The MPA program did a great job at integrating technology and the changes to the audit of the future into their program and I’ve applied those skills to my job.

My McCombs experience gave me a great sense of inspiration. The faculty have published such amazing research and brought great energy to class that motivated and excited us to learn. I know there are no limits to what I can accomplish.”

-Christiana, MPA ’19, Asst. Manager, Regulatory Advisory, KPMG Deutschland

Business Analytics

“I wanted to further develop my technical skills but also have the ability to communicate and translate analytics to business – MSBA had the perfect balance of both, and I knew Texas McCombs offered a lot of professional opportunities. My favorite part of the proram was to work with an actual company on the capstone project and apply everything we learned in school to a real dataset and business problem.”

-Hope, MSBA ’19, Senior Product Analyst, Recharge

Finance

“The finance program taught me an intro level knowledge to many areas of finance such as investment theory, economics, valuation and corporate finance. From there, I was able to use the McCombs networking opportunities and my new knowledge to recruit into consulting jobs.
I accepted an offer from Alvarez & Marsal in October after they spoke to our program in a recruiting event. Without MSF I would not have the connections and opportunity to transition careers like I did.”

-Claire, MSF ’25, Private Equity M&A Analyst, Alvarez & Marsal
