Programs in Marketing

"I can't think of any other institution where I'd like to pursue my graduate studies."

I moved to New York City seven years ago and got a job in the insurance industry. I knew that an NYU business marketing certificate would carry a lot of weight on my graduate school applications and it's actually done so much more. The certificate program has broadened my business views and given me more of a well-rounded perspective, as well as a fresh approach to accomplishing my job. The flexibility of the program alone has made it very easy to fit in with my work schedule and, overall, it's really given me more confidence to pursue a graduate degree and investigate promotions in my current job.

Being in class with students from various industries and having unprecedented access to professors made all the difference. One professor, Perry Drake, gave the certificate program students the same office hours as his graduate students. Given the constant seminars that helped me network with key players in the NYC business world and the dynamic nature of my classmates and professors, I can't think of any other institution where I'd like to pursue my graduate studies.
