Collaborative Action
You will feel the energy and camaraderie the moment you arrive at the UC Davis Graduate School of Management. Our small class size offers an intimate, vibrant environment in which learning and close relationships flourish.
UC Davis MBA students have a common commitment to excel as individuals and to see each other succeed—they galvanize teams, motivate each other and ignite innovative thinking. They challenge one another and hold each other accountable. Most importantly, they quickly realize they can do far more together than if they simply sought their own achievements.
During Orientation you will meet your future teammates and begin to forge lifelong friendships. The highlights include faculty introductions, career development workshops, a case-study seminar, social and networking events and a state-of-the-art Executive Challenge business simulation. You will emerge ready for collaborative action and making an impact as a UC Davis MBA student—and throughout your career.
From day one, the team-oriented UC Davis MBA experience promotes fresh approaches shaped by the talents, diversity and creativity of your peers. You’ll benefit from classmates and faculty from around the world who bring valuable international perspective.
In our close-knit community, you’ll also partner with senior executives and veteran entrepreneurs who serve as mentors for consulting center projects and business plan competitions. You’ll meet industry leaders who share their experiences from the front lines, and take cues from renowned experts to sharpen your leadership skills.
