George Gichimu, MBA Class of 2014 & MSA Class of 2015
My experience at UMB will remain forever etched in my heart. A premier institution within Boston which offered me life changing skills. I admired the ability to earn dual degree (MBA & MSA) while working because of UMass Boston flexibility and affordability.
Course projects were good challenges that helped me to sharpen my research, writing, and presentation skills which are all important in my current role. I’m using skills such as Lean Management and Six Sigma in my daily life and sametime has applied them within my team and we have noticed value add for our customers.
Besides work experience the credentials from a respected university was instrumental in getting my current opportunity at John Hancock Funds.
