As an aspiring entrepreneur, I knew an MBA was essential for my goals. UC Davis stood out to me because of its comprehensive program and the invaluable opportunity to network with a diverse group of people. These connections are crucial for building a solid foundation for my future career, making UC Davis the perfect fit.
The unique selling point of the UC Davis MBA is its close-knit community. Though the cohort size is small, at the Graduate School of Management, the alumni connections are impeccable. Everybody strives to give back to the community and the energy is infectious. This sense of community has been bolstered during my time at the GSM.
Further, UC Davis attracts some of the best talent and ensures great diversity in the cohort. It is wonderful to work with people from different walks of life, imbibing diverse perspectives and succeeding together.
Director of Yield Management
I grew up in Davis and never thought I would attend UC Davis. But when I started researching graduate schools, I loved that the GSM offered a small, close-knit community in my hometown. As I've grown older, I've learned to appreciate more the town, way of life here, and the incredible amount of food and agriculture industry that we have in the area.

Paul Griffin shares why he thinks more companies will commit to sustainable standards in the coming future.
I choose to attend UC Davis as an undergraduate because I was following the steps of my older brother. Once I began my own journey, I fell more in love with the Davis campus and people with each passing minute. I have acquired so many fond memories from my time at UC Davis so it was an easy choice when deciding where I wanted to complete my MBA at.
UC Davis offers an amazing opportunity to pursue an MBA degree that incorporates the scientific focus that I was looking for in a program. The location of Davis in an agricultural hub for the United States is a unique experience that students get, combined with an amazing atmosphere brought by the people who choose to come here. The culture of the GSM is unbeatable and I am so lucky to be able to experience California for the first time by coming to Davis.
