What I liked about this program: It allowed me to hone existing skills and
develop new quantitative ones and gain hands on experience working on
projects in real life business scenarios. Since the program is certified by ASEM, I
got the opportunity to write and present academic papers at two annual
conferences (both fully sponsored by SCSU), which was highly appreciated by
employers during my interviews. Additionally, the campus location in the twin
cities allows networking opportunities with several fortune 500 companies.
