I chose UC Davis because of its exceptional student-to-faculty ratio, fostering meaningful interactions and personalized learning experiences.
Moreover, being in San Francisco offers unique opportunities for internships and networking in one of the world's leading tech and innovation hubs, enhancing my career prospects. The combination of academic excellence, location, and a supportive community made UC Davis the perfect choice for me.
I chose UC Davis's MSBA program for its reputation in molding data-savvy professionals. Its blend of STEM and business education prepares students for a data-centric world. The hands-on curriculum lets me leverage my technical skills to address broader health sector challenges.
UC Davis is known for being top-notch in Business Analytics, so it felt like the right fit for where I want to head next.
Over the last two years i became a Software Engineering Lead at Meta and quickly realized how important it is having a business analytical background to back up your projects. Having a great solution that saves millions of dollars is not enough for trillion-dollar companies, they need to fully understand the short term vs long term impact of your solution as well as proving with statistics if it satisfies a real business need.
During a trip to California in 2016, I met family and friends who spoke highly about UC Davis. Since then UC Davis, has been on my radar as a potential Graduate School destination. I was fortunate to have UC Davis as one of my offers for Master's in Business Analytics. The curriculum offered the right mix of technical and business courses. Its location in the Bay Area sealed the deal for me.
