Academics
With the full weight of Arizona State University behind it, the W.P. Carey School of Business provides its students with small classes, a top name degree, and a “wealth of information and resources.” Even with its stellar reputation, “professors and admin are hungry to improve” and the school “constantly evaluates the MBA programs to optimize/improve according to feedback, needs of the business community, and trends in business teaching.” Academics are “demanding but rewarding, and extremely thorough,” with multiple concentrations available for students to customize their education in areas such as Healthcare Management, International Business, and the lauded Supply Chain Management program. Students can expect “group projects galore” with the first year bringing “an enormous amount of information” and very little time to do much else; by the second year, “the coursework has decreased significantly.”
The “outstanding” professors are “brilliant technically and readily make themselves available outside of class” and are always encouraging the students to attend office hours if the students feel if they are falling behind. “Our professors have held us to the highest level of professionalism and demand,” says a student. The administration is similarly accessible, and “regularly hold town hall meetings to get a feel of the vibe of the student body and get feedback.” “It has been a pleasure to work with school administration and faculty on adjusting class setups and extracurricular activities. They only want what the students want and proactively try to accommodate for those preferences,” says a student.
