Excellence at J. Mack Robinson College of Business
Aaron Lee
"I chose Robinson because of its excellent reputation and convenience. I am working full-time while pursuing my MBA, so I need to be in a program that can accommodate my schedule while providing an atmosphere of continued learning. Robinson has that perfect mix.

The faculty at RCB is excellent! The professors find new, creative ways to make each class interesting and challenge my thinking daily. The students also have a significant impact on learning because they bring their unique experiences to the discussion. In my Human Resources classes, I have the opportunity to hear how other HR professionals handle common problems and can implement their ideas at my place of employment."

Excellence at J. Mack Robinson College of Business
Michelle Carter
"I chose to undertake a master's in Information Systems at the Robinson College of Business because of the CIS Department's excellent reputation for teaching and research. The opportunity to learn from world-class faculty has made Robinson my most fulfilling educational experience to date. I now have a much deeper understanding of issues surrounding design and delivery of information systems in support of business strategy. Learning from Dr. Duane Truex, in particular, has provided me with excellent preparation to continue my studies at Ph.D. level."

Excellence at J. Mack Robinson College of Business
Daniel Cook
"Robinson has given me everything I wanted in an MBAMHA program. My classmates are great and have real-world experience; the professors have worked in their field of study and can provide insight beyond any textbook; and the class layout has been exceptional with regard to a work/life balance.

The best memory I will take away from Robinson is from my classmates in the MHA program. I could not have expected or wished for a better group of people to work through classes and projects with."
