Suffolk University is showing a strong commitment to our nation’s veterans and recognizes
the unique skills that are acquired through military service. Suffolk’s Executive MBA
Program is teaching me how to use those skills and the strengths that I gained from
my experience, as well as showing me how to incorporate new ideas that will help me
become a more successful leader.

operations manager, harpoon brewing company
I began looking into MBA programs 13 years after receiving my undergraduate degree. I
quickly gravitated to an executive program and to Suffolk University. I chose the Suffolk
Executive MBA program because of the diverse curriculum, convenient location, and the
weekend schedule.
I received a great education, plus the opportunity to expand my leadership skills, see
things from a different viewpoint, and broaden my perspective. The contacts I made
while attending the program continue to be both trusted advisors and friends.

director of human resources, donavan hatem, llp
Upon completing eight years of active duty as a commissioned officer, I needed a fast track
education to help me take my leadership skills into the business world. The Suffolk
Execu-tive MBA Program provided me with just that. Working with experienced peers enhanced
my own experiences and helped me start building my business network. Because of my
Suffolk Executive MBA, I was afforded opportunities for rapid promotion in my new career.
I strongly recommend the program to any active or transitioning military personnel.
