Why did you decide to join the Master of Management Analytics program?
I was looking for something challenging but equally rewarding. I always wanted to be at UofT and at the time of application, the MMA brochure, which I went through. was impressive and promised me what I wanted. So far, its been delivering on those promises.
Top Reason(s) for choosing Rotman:
I figured if I was going to go back to school for my master's, might as well go to the best school in the country. Its proximity to the commercial center of Ontario also served as an alluring factor. Furthermore, my discussion with alumni of the program was generally positive with everyone telling me how they really had a great time here.
What are you looking forward to the most in the program?
The Tools Term - Everyone I have spoken to has detailed the rigour of the tools term to me and for some reason, it only makes me even more excited. I believe that it will be a pivotal three months in my goal to become significantly more technical than when I joined the program.
What do you expect to gain in your next 11 months at Rotman?
At the end of the program, I have a plethora of objectives I hope to have achieved but most importantly, I want to have been able to make significant connections among my classmates, colleagues from other programs and industry leaders. I believe that is one of the most useful aspects of being in a world-class business school. This connections will be increasingly significant to me in the long term.
