Partners in Your Success

At the University of Washington, you are encouraged to participate actively in the learning process. Your questions are welcomed. Group discussion is expected. This stimulating, interactive environment encourages exploration and helps you develop the confidence to articulate your ideas with your professors and your peers. You will also find faculty and staff who are committed to helping you benefit fully from your MBA experience.

Staff

Get help and answers from the MBA Program Office staff. From admissions and financial aid questions to course registration procedures, staff members are your primary guides through the MBA Program requirements.

Career Coaches

Partner with MBA career professionals to map out your long-term aspirations and develop a plan to achieve them. Gain insight on career trends, emerging disciplines, hot companies, salary ranges and ways to compete for top jobs.

Academic Advisors

Work closely with advisors to identify the best MBA learning opportunities to reach your professional goals.

Faculty

More than experts in their topics, faculty members act as project advisors, sounding boards, and mentors. A faculty member may sponsor your independent study course or help you connect to professionals in your area of interest.

MBA Students

Develop a diverse and influential network with UW MBA students who share your passion for business. The program’s strong focus on teamwork brings students together to mentor each other on projects; combine ideas in competitions and build strong ties that last beyond graduation.

Leadership Fellows

Mentor and coach first year study teams as a leadership fellow during your second year in the program. Help new students navigate the program successfully while you further develop your leadership skills and build your network.

Mentors

Connect with high-level Seattle area business executives in the MBA Mentor Program to increase your industry knowledge and gain exposure to the realities of the business world.

“Dan Turner was a great coach for my Business Consulting Network research project at Microsoft. He helped the consulting team refine ideas in a safe environment where he played both an advisor and a client advocate. He challenged us to make our research findings relevant and helped us develop actionable recommendations. The clients were very happy with the presentation and thanks to my understanding of product planning from this project, I was selected for a summer internship at Microsoft.”
