 I chose UC Davis because of its strong reputation, collaborative community and emphasis on applying what we learn to real-world challenges.

The accelerated MSBA program stood out to me for its combination of technical and business education, hands-on projects and opportunities to work with industry partners. Being in San Francisco also provides access to a thriving business and technology environment. I knew UC Davis would be the right place to build on my data science background, grow professionally and prepare for a career in analytics.
