An undergrad’s inside look into the Graduate School of Management’s leadership
As an undergraduate majoring in managerial economics, getting an inside look at a graduate business school isn't something that happens every day. Here's what I learned on my job shadow day at the Graduate School of Management.
I chose UC Davis because it is academically competitive, but also a friendly and collaborative environment. Another key factor was my major, managerial economics, because it is more analytical and lets me explore subjects outside the scope of a regular business major.
Beyond academics, I noticed during my campus tour how much the campus and the town had to offer. The campus scenery and the variety of things to do on and off campus made Davis feel like a natural fit for me.
