Forty-two students received their diplomas from Business Dean Steve Reinemund on Friday, Sept. 19.
“These are exceptional students who show amazing abilities to balance their responsibilities and perform exceptionally well in a rigorous academic program,” said Associate Dean for Working Professional Programs Dan Fogel. “I am very encouraged about our collective futures when I see who we are graduating and their energy and focus to attack important societal problems in addition to their careers.”
The Charlotte Evening MBA Program is designed for professionals, managers, small business owners and entrepreneurs with strong job performance who want to advance into mid- and upper-level management.
