BRAD SONODA
S-4, 9th Hospital Center - U.S. Army

Why did you pursue an MBA after the military?

“I pursued an MBA because it provides the institutional foundation that enables me to apply my experience in supply chain management and logistics to business. An MBA exposes you to the functional areas of business and illustrates how they integrate with one another. By holistically understanding business, I am able to incorporate my expertise across key aspects of a company’s operations and generate value.”

Why did you choose the Auburn University MBA specifically?

“I selected Auburn to complete my MBA because they are ranked one of the nation’s best online programs. Due to my military obligations, in-person attendance was not an option when I was applying to business schools. I sought a program that had mastered bridging online and in-person learning without compromising the quality of education and Auburn was that school. Auburn’s online MBA structure mirrors their in-person classes and I never once felt that I “missed out” on my education.”

TONYA YOUNG
CEO / President - Security Concepts and Strategic Designs

Why did you choose to pursue an MBA?

“I chose an Executive MBA because I believe that one should never stop learning. I wanted to acquire and strengthen the strategic skills necessary to posture our business for growth. This program is helping me gain more confidence and provide the credentials needed to expand the fledgling training and consulting business my husband and I started.”

Why did you choose the Auburn University MBA specifically?

“I grew up twenty miles from Auburn, and I love the school. I wasn't aware of the program's prestige until I read an article about top-ranked EMBA programs in a magazine on a flight. Auburn was featured, and I was intrigued. Auburn is ranked globally as one of the top 100 Executive MBA programs, and it's one of the few universities offering a blended on-campus, online and international experience. This was important because I really wanted the collaboration with a cohort. The program is designed specifically for mid-to-late career business professionals and provides flexibility without compromising quality. The Auburn Family is like none other!”

DR. MATTHEW MOORMAN
Chief, Division of Trauma, Critical Care, and Acute Care Surgery - University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center

Why did you pursue an MBA after the military?

“I pursued an MBA mostly out of genuine interest in the content but also to augment my understanding of the business and financial aspects of the health care profession. I have studied leadership in both my medical and military roles for years. However, my education prior to the MBA never addressed subjects such as marketing and business strategy. A more formal exposure to these subjects was appealing to me. While the return on investment of an MBA was not part of my personal decision to enroll, it has indeed happened. I believe the MBA has indeed opened doors for me.”

Why did you choose the Auburn University MBA specifically?

“I looked at many programs across the country. Auburn’s PEMBA program has a reputation for delivering a very high level business education that focuses just enough on health care. They broaden your skill sets outside of medicine but also prepare you to be a better leader in your current and future roles as a physician leader. The combination of remote and on-campus experiences was perfect for me. I enjoyed the in-person learning environment and the connections I made with faculty and classmates.”
