I put together presentations every other day here… the volume of data I can sift through, put into a presentation, and present out without practicing is now a seasoned tool in my tool belt!

St. Bonaventure’s MBA program is incredible. Not only is the structure of the program accommodating for the working professional, but the class sizes allow for both one-on-one interaction as well as group participation. Because of my experience at St. Bonaventure, I have a much better understanding of the ins and outs of a business, what truly makes a business successful and where I see myself in the future. SBU was the perfect fit for me.

My decision to pursue an MBA at St. Bonaventure University is one I will be forever grateful for and is one I recommend to anyone considering a graduate program. Some key benefits offered that made a difference to me:
The flexible in-person and online class schedule A range of electives to peak your specific field of interest, including the option of a 2-week study abroad program in China through the Beijing Institute of Technology.
The smaller, tight-knit class sizes that allowed an in-depth discussion to be had with peers and each professor.
The communication and interpersonal skills gained in this environment are invaluable.
Earning my MBA at St. Bonaventure has opened up a world of opportunities and the experience is one I will lean on throughout my professional career.

McKernan loves “every second” of her job as assistant marketing manager at Godiva Chocolatier, where managing social media is a large part of her workday. Pursuing her master’s degree in Integrated Marketing Communications ignited her interest in social media as brand marketing.
“At Godiva I was given the opportunity to run, develop and execute content for their social media platforms,” she said.
That’s a lot of responsibility on the shoulders of a 23-year-old, and McKernan thanks St. Bonaventure for helping her meet that challenge.
“The background of the whole mission of showing forgiveness and trying to move past (conflict) and work with others is something that I’ve since strived for every day,” she said.
