Class of 2017

The Professional MBA at Miami Herbert Business School was the perfect match for what I was looking for in a program. The in-person format was instrumental in building a strong network with other local professionals and industry leaders, many of which I now call friends. The professors were not just knowledgeable and engaging, but also very approachable and key to making the experience go beyond the classroom. Collaborating with all these people continuously throughout two years, while still working full-time, provided me with fresh perspectives and real-world insights that have helped make me a more well-rounded business leader. Go Canes!

With exceptional faculty, who incorporated real-world examples into the coursework, and diverse representation within the cohort, with professionals from industries such as engineering, finance, aviation, and insurance, I learned to approach business challenges from multiple angles. This program not only strengthened my business acumen and leadership skills but also equipped me with the confidence to navigate complex challenges with a well-rounded, strategic mindset.
