Executive UST MBA
Meet Jim Vogl
"The collective experience of my cohort has added richness to the learning environment, providing me with a much broader perspective of today?s business landscape."
I have been fortunate to advance in my career while earning my EMBA and since. I credit the UST Executive MBA program for helping me achieve these successes. My studies have aided my professional development in a number of ways. The course content presented by our faculty has rounded out my business and leadership knowledge. The collective experience of my cohort has added richness to the learning environment, providing me with a much broader perspective of today’s business landscape. Most importantly, the E.M.B.A. curriculum emphasis on systems thinking has helped me become more thoughtful and strategic in my decision making.
When considering the value of an investment in an executive MBA one must consider the financial and time sacrifices required. I received financial support from my employer, Medtronic, to pursue my studies. I believe the company values its investment in my development. The additional responsibilities I have been given reflect an increased confidence in and higher expectations of my abilities as a business leader. Likewise, the personal return on the time and funds I have invested toward my degree is very high. My investment in the Executive UST MBA has been very worthwhile.
