On average, students in our MBA program have 5 years’ work experience, ranging between 3 and 10 years. We do not expect you to have traditional managerial experience. Instead, we are more concerned with your professional growth, management potential, ability to work in teams, and willingness to take on responsibilities. In addition, the business sector or function is less important than the quality of the experience you gained in that sector.
