Students Say
In addition to Hofstra's "great teachers," students praise the quality of course content, particularly the Global Practicum on Strategy—a weeklong international immersion experience in one or two countries—as adding value to their MBA. "My experience has opened doors to professional and personal development that would not have otherwise been available . . . It helped me become a leader," one student attests. Hofstra students are career-seasoned, with an average entering age of 36 and an average 11 years of work experience. They're optimistic about their futures past graduation, expecting about a 4 percent salary increase with their MBA, and 18 percent of graduates receive a promotion while still attending the program. Leadership management, operations, and teamwork are curricular strengths, according to students.
