Carolina Almanza

MBA - Strategic Management

Carolina has a Bachelor’s of Arts and Science in Applied Technology and Performance Improvement. She is currently a Practice Administrator for one of the largest not-for-profit health care systems in Texas. She directs practice management activities and operations for specialty physician practices while ensuring achievement of strategic goals.

Carolina enjoyed the experience while attending UNT for her undergrad and so she wanted to continue at UNT for her MBA. She said, “Even though I was a non-traditional student, I felt pride attending a top known university that provided flexibility and had an all-online schedule. I did attend classes on-campus for my undergrad and actually still do since I love the culture and environment. The cherry on top was the fact UNT had an AACSB Accredited Business School.”

When she was asked about her favorite course, she said she could not provide a "favorite" course because each class has been instrumental in her education and she is able to take a little bit of each class and applied it in her real-world job. “The classes I've taken on campus have all been great with amazing professors that keep the classes fun and exciting. They've done a great job at showing me how to apply the skills I've learned and providing real-world examples based on their experiences.”

Final words to prospective students: I've recommended UNT's MBA program to all of those who ask me. UNT has so many programs and resources available to help their students be successful and ensure they have job opportunities once they have completed their program. They now even have an MBA ambassador to continue to support us in our times of need.
