“PVAMU’s accredited Executive MBA program had and continues to have a great reputation. The program worked for me, given I travel internationally on business regularly, and the weekend class schedule fits my busy schedule. The international component, with our study abroad trip to China being integrated into the program, was another major selling point. Finally, the structured cohort model was another major reason.”

Cedric Bandoh

“The Executive MBA program [at PVAMU] has allowed me to expand my professional development skills, particularly around critical and strategic thinking. It has also provided me with an amazing opportunity to improve my communication and presentation skills. I earned a 4.0 GPA in the EMBA program, published two articles, and acquired a Bloomberg MarketConcepts Certification,”

Tiffany Nguyen

“Prairie View means three things to me: home, family, and foundation. It took me 29 years and a variety of positions, jobs, and experiences to finally realize I need a foundation in business. I have been an entrepreneur for 16 years, but it wasn’t until I started my Executive MBA classes that I realized it was just a hobby. I am now learning how to run a business — from supply chain management and accounting to marketing in a global environment.”

“Overall, the trip was an outstanding experience. I loved Shanghai, and there was so much to see. Beijing had its own brand of marvels. The people were warm and friendly, and I have never taken so many pictures in my life!”

Lyric D. Jackson, EMBA

“Even as a business professional who has traveled to Asia many times, the China study abroad experience touched on business and cultural areas that require strategic guidance and planning. There was a sense of excitement to understand more about China, the routines of the locals, the roadmap of the country and their perception of business.”

Johnson Ashia, EMBA

“I will forever hold this experience near my heart. Because of this trip, I am interested in entering my business product into the Chinese market. I plan to use my PVAMU EMBA education and resources, along with my current professional experience in healthcare, to support and implement my future business plans.”
