MBA - Marketing

Washima has a Business Management degree (with honors) from the University of Texas at Arlington. She has five years of experience in marketing, business development and community outreach

She chose UNT for her MBA because the online program has been nationally recognized for many years and it worked best for her, being a Professional MBA student. The cost was also affordable and the degree requirements were manageable for her to juggle with a full-time job.

Her most memorable experience during the MBA was taking her final exam and being able to apply my work experience in assignments. She was also excited because of all of the A’s that she made in the courses. Washima loved Accounting 5130, which was her first graduate course. “I fell in love with accounting and became confident using the online platform, primarily because of the effective and well-coordinated ways my professor taught the course, making the experience very rich for the students.”

Washima’s advice to students is to strike a balance. “The duration of the program will go by fast, but balance work and school with some fun or travel breaks, so you don’t experience a burnout. And most importantly, be sure to apply what you are learning from your courses in your workplace, and incorporate your work experience into your coursework, this is a 2-way learning experience and it does not stop after you “get hooded!”
