Academics
The Penn State Smeal MBA is grounded in the university’s longstanding tradition of excellence, and students are consistently attracted to its “strong community with a good reputation around the world.” Indeed, a “strong alumni network,” is one of the Penn State Smeal MBA’s greatest benefits, along with “excellent academics, great career opportunities,” and a “top-notch” faculty and administration. “The professors have a vast amount of experience,” and students find them “excellent at integrating real-world experiences” and “new business trends to into its courses, such as sustainability business strategy.” “Penn State Smeal MBA faculty have extensive consulting experience and are highly regarded researchers,” and in particular, “the supply chain and finance professors are excellent and prepare students to be top tier talent coming out of the program.” Penn State’s “small class size makes access to faculty and administration extremely easy,” and its “professors are very open to suggestion for improvement and regularly adjust class based on students’ needs.” The “administration is receptive to students’ needs” as well. All of this academic and administrative force combines to ensure Penn State Smeal MBA students will succeed: “I’ve been pushed to limits I never thought were possible, and I’m a better person for their insistence on pushing us to perform and produce at the highest level.”
