As the preterm came to a close, Ohio State's Fisher College of Business decided to celebrate the end and foster connections among students with a delightful picnic at the scenic Park of Roses in Columbus. This event brought together 1st and 2nd-year MBA students, professors, and the Fisher leadership team, creating a fantastic opportunity for networking, relaxation, and pure enjoyment.

What are the primary purposes of career fairs/conferences while in the MBA program at Ohio State, and what can you do to prepare? Here are some great tips for international students who may not be familiar with these types of events.

My post-MBA reflections on the value of a graduate degree in the professional world.

Happy Spring, The school year is winding down and I am inching closer to graduation. I wanted to offer some useful tips to combat senioritis and for staying motivated during your business school journey. Senioritis is a common problem that affects many students during their final year of business school. It can be difficult to stay motivated when you're close to the finish line, but it's important to keep pushing yourself to ensure you finish strong.

This month marks the end of my first year at the Fisher College of Business, and what a year it has been! I cannot put into words how amazing the experience was and how thoroughly I enjoyed being a part of it. I have made some lifelong connections and built some strong networks during the course of this program. Reflecting back, I would love to highlight the plethora of skills that I have acquired in such a limited amount of time.

In all honesty, it feels like it was just yesterday when I was taking all my business core classes back-to-back. Even though, at this point, I am four short weeks away from my first year as a Full-Time MBA student being over. Somewhere along the way, I learned more about finance, accounting, and operations, without ever having dug deep into the subjects before.

Anyone who has followed or read my past posts knows I came to Fisher to pursue an MBA in Operations and Supply Chain. Still, the beauty of an MBA is that you have the opportunity to explore your other interests and subjects that can add value to your decision-making. Classes on marketing and analytics sparked an interest and I was looking to further my knowledge in these fields. I recommend the following courses to anyone interested in marketing and analytics:

  A very important part of any MBA program is providing its students with hands-on learning opportunities. I believe that Fisher does an outstanding job at doing so. Last semester, we had the opportunity as a class to participate in an internal case competition among all first-year MBA students.

One of the experiences that I was looking forward to the most pre-MBA was the core subject that I am going to be taking up this semester—the Business Lab Challenge. The subject started with a choice among a plethora of firms and companies that had come to us MBA students to work with us and help them solve a problem as a strategy consultant for their firm.
