Dean’s Message

Take a Closer Look at Terry

Do you remember the day you decided to get an MBA? That was the day you nominated yourself to join the next generation of business leaders.

The challenges facing you are daunting. As people look at all the problems in the world, they expect business to be an integral part of the solution—and to be profitable doing it. This will require business leaders who can envision, plan, energize, and execute in radically new ways to produce goods, services, and value.

The Full-time Terry MBA Program will prepare you for a leadership role, armed not only with a superior understanding of business theory and sophisticated managerial skills, but also with greater self-awareness, interpersonal skills, and team facilitation skills. Our MBA students graduate with leadership skills that will take them as far as they want to go.

The closer you look at Terry, the more confident you will be in your decision to attend. You will find:

• An outstanding faculty, whose expertise and commitment to students are visible every day inside the classroom and out
• Smart, motivated business people from around the world as your peers
• A small program size that guarantees individualized attention, from admissions to career management
• Two new certificate programs, in leadership and in environmental ethics, that enhance your degree and increase your employment marketability

I challenge you to compare the academic quality and return on investment of the Terry MBA to other Top 50 programs. Factor in the beautiful University of Georgia campus and the vibrant college town of Athens. Think about the network of 50,000 Terry alumni you will be joining and the doors they will open for you. I am confident you will decide to join us at Terry.

Sincerely,

Robert T. Sumichrast, Dean
Terry College of Business
