Pathways Operations Manager: Amazon
Why an MBA?
“I decided to go back to school to get my MBA, after completing four years of military service in the United States Air Force, because I knew that getting my MBA would help propel me to the next level in my career. Attending a top-level MBA program would allow me the opportunity to further my education and immerse myself in a wealth of business knowledge by learning from individuals with real world experience.”
Why Georgia Tech?
“I chose Georgia Tech because of its strong reputation for networking and job placement. But what really set Georgia Tech apart, for me, were the people. Before I was accepted into the program I had students reach out to me and invite me to coffee so that we could talk about the program. Everyone was warm, caring, and welcoming. It felt like I was among friends. I didn’t experience that with any of the other programs that I had been accepted to. That’s what sold me on Georgia Tech and I couldn’t be happier with my decision to attend Georgia Tech for my MBA.”

CHARLIE SCOTT
Senior Associate: KPMG
Why an MBA?
“The MBA was an integral part of my transition from the military to business. During my five years of military service, I learned a lot about organizing groups of people to accomplish goals and missions. I decided to pursue an MBA so that I could learn about the leadership skills that are applicable to both the military and business.”
Why Georgia Tech?
“I chose Georgia Tech’s MBA program because of the strong alumni presence. I believe your decision on an MBA program should not only focus on the academic offerings, but also the networking opportunities and willingness of the program’s alumni. With a strong alumni network and presence in Atlanta (and the nationally recognized brand of Georgia Tech), I knew the Georgia Tech MBA program was the right choice for my career aspirations.”

Why Georgia Tech?
“I chose Georgia Tech because of its fantastic location, high ranking, and focus on technology. Georgia Tech’s MBA is unique because of its small class size, collaborative environment, and encouraging community. In addition, I had the opportunity to work on more than seven external project for companies in several industries. This provided me a unique experience to interact with senior executives, provide value to clients, and hone my consulting skills.”

SHAWN IPKA
Senior Vendor Manager: Amazon
Why an MBA?
“I developed strong leadership skills during my years in the
Navy, but I needed help translating that experience into a viable skillset for employment outside of the military.”
Why Georgia Tech?
“It was clear to me that Georgia Tech had excellent career support. My career advisor coached me on the importance of maximizing opportunities in order to network for results. We worked one-on-one to effectively use my connections, as well as Georgia Tech’s, in order to get myself in front of the right people, who could ultimately offer me a job. I attribute the guidance and the knowledge I gained through my work with Georgia Tech’s Career Services with the job offer I received when I graduated from the Executive MBA program.”
