“I chose Smith because of its rankings and how the curriculum aligned with what I wanted to do in the future. Classes such as Global Transportation Management and Global Resource Planning were particularly impactful to me. Now that I'm working, the coursework directly applies to what I do for my company.”

“For my experiential learning project, my team worked with data to develop models assessing housing risk in different markets. We looked at housing prices and general trends in the economy to create a housing risk index for each metropolitan statistical area. It was relevant to a real-world industry, and great to talk about at job interviews.”
