“As a career switcher, MAP allowed me to explore a completely new industry as well as gain experience as a consultant that ended up being a crucial part of my resume for recruiting, since I’d had very little client interaction previously. I emphatically recommend MAP to every part-time MBA I meet!”
- Victoria Throckmorton, Evening MBA
“MAP does a great job of putting you in a position where you truly don’t think you have what it takes to accomplish the task at hand — but you have to anyway. The process of making that big push, holding your breath, and making that effort let me learn more about myself and my teammates than I thought I could from a project.”
- Eric Satre, Evening MBA

“I was really impressed by how quickly the team was able to understand a great deal of information, navigate through ambiguity, and provide us with an outstanding and ready-to-implement recommendation. I also have to highlight the professionalism of the team and how well their diversity of backgrounds contributed to the final outcome!”
- Pedro Oleiro, Head of Customer Experience, Uber Technologies Inc.
