University of Galway’s AMBA and AACSB accredited MBA programme, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, will host a virtual MBA open evening at 6pm today (Thursday ). The open evening is a great opportunity to learn about the programme and to meet MBA faculty, students, and graduates.
Anne Wagner, food security expert at the European Commission and recent MBA graduate, shares what she values most from her MBA journey:
“Following 15 years of an intense career, I was looking to make the most of the second part of my journey. Eight weeks before the start of the MBA, my resilience was already tested when the whole family decided to move to Milan (my husband got a new job ). I desire human connections and following a first year online, I was delighted to experience the 'on-campus' life for the second year, leaving everything (and everyone ) behind to focus on the MBA.
"Having done four months of my new role at the European Commission, I have the powerful feeling that nothing can stop me. Thanks to the programme, I know better who I am, how to make the most of my strengths, and how to embrace my vulnerabilities. In this new chapter, I allow myself to be authentic and trust my emotional intelligence, which is a game changer to me. The 'can do' attitude and constant support of my classmates are gems I will treasure forever. They enabled me to be the best version of myself. Embarking on an MBA was the right decision for me, for better only.”
An MBA is the one of the most prestigious business degrees globally, and the AMBA (Association of MBAs ) accredited University of Galway MBA is one of the leading programmes in the country. For further information and to register for the virtual open evening, visit www.universityofgalway.ie/mba
