Brijesh Patel MBA 23

Vice President

I chose UC Davis because of the diversity of opportunities. The school's large size allowed me the chance to find causes that interested me and get involved in various clubs. I knew I wanted to meet many types of people and have a range of experiences to broaden my knowledge and perspective and become a more well-rounded person. I was also interested in the quality of professors available at UC Davis. I met some of the most prominent leaders in the field through taking courses, attending seminars, and networking through the department.
