Students Say - Careers
The Dolan MBA program is a small, predominantly part-time program in which most students already have careers. In fact, a number of students actually attend at their employers' expense. This situation creates a relatively small demand for career services within the program, so students seeking such services must use the Career Planning Center that serves the entire university. The Dolan Graduate Business Association, run by students, is probably the most aggressive advocate for career services within the program. Professors and alumni are also regarded as valuable resources for those seeking internships or careers. Most students wish that the school would "bring a greater diversity of businesses to career fairs." "Right now every business is in the financial arena, I would like to see them expand beyond those borders," one student says. Employers most likely to hire Dolan MBAs include General Electric, People's Bank, American Skandia, United Technologies, Pitney Bowes, The Common Fund, Bayer Corporation, UBS Warburg, Gartner, Unilever, and Pfizer.
