Where are they now?

Jack Ellington came to the MABM program in a job he wasn’t satisfied with and didn’t want to limit his career advancement opportunities. Once he entered the program, he quickly learned he was in the right place. Before graduating, he already had a job lined up in agricultural management! Now, he is a sales manager for Pilgrim’s Pride in Colorado and feels his degree helps him connect with people, even before they’ve met.

Louis Holbrook began his journey in the MABM program unsure of how it would truly benefit him. After entering the program, though, he quickly found the allure companies have with a MABM graduate. Prior to graduation, he had multiple job offers and decided to take one as an economic research analyst with Staplcotn, a regional cotton cooperative. Reflecting on his time in the MABM program he stated, “The MABM program prepared me in almost every way for the role I took at Staplcotn.” He has also seen multiple raises during his continued career with Staplcotn, which presented itself directly through the MABM program.

The Degree

On campus students begin the MABM program during the first summer term. In the two weeks prior to the start of the program students attend one week of MBAMath during which certain prerequisite deficiencies can be addressed and a mandatory one-week orientation (known as Springboard Week). Online students can start the program at the beginning of any semester. The degree requires a minimum of 30 hours of coursework, which includes a required internship. MABM students must also successfully complete a comprehensive oral examination. Research assistantships are not available for students in the MABM program.
