Ohio State University (OSU)

I am currently in the MBA (master of business administration) with a focus on international business and investment management. The core classes (the first 2 quarters) are boring if you are coming from a business undergraduate school as it is an in-depth reviwe of the basics. But the choice of electives are great. Fisher college of business was able to recruit some of the best professors of Harvard (Karen Wruck, Roger Blackwell). There are a lot of opportunities for those interested by international assignments. The EMFS (emerging markets field study) enable some selected students to study one or two emerging countries and travel there to make some company site visits. I was able to visit Brazil and Argentina in March 2001 (just at the period of the peso devaluation Awesome!!! The program includes the possibility to study one quarter abroad with most of the partnership in China, Hong Kong, Australia and London. The international community within the school in superb with parties all the time.

One last thing: the program is based a lot on teamwork and you'll be assigned one as soon as you are accepted in which you'll do all teamworks (and there are a lot of those) throughout the first year. If you don't think you are a team person, just select another program. There are some classes you must really be careful when you select, but the add/drop system enables you to change before it is too late

I wish I had a better financial background at the time, which would have allowed me to spend more time with social activities.

You have to be open-minded and outgoing, social to really get the most out of the experience. It is absolutely worth it seeing such a huge and well-organized university.

nothing in special

Huge university, Huge Campus, if someone will not find social contacts here than nowhere!!
