Business Analyst, Intuit Inc.

As an International graduate working at a major company in the Silicon Valley, I believe the MS ITM program at The University of Texas at Dallas has played a defining role in my journey. The course structure of the ITM program at UT Dallas manages to perfectly balance the scale between the most recent tools and technologies, and their application to the business. The flexibility offered by the program in terms of the specialization tracks, along with the exceptional faculty at JSOM not only enabled me to tailor my learning to align with my interests, but also ensured that I learn from the experience of some of the best minds in the country.

Being a part of the ITM Student Leadership Council (SLC) and the UT Dallas MIS Club helped me expand my network and connect with the Staff, Students and Professors along with various industry leaders. The opportunities provided by these organizations greatly honed my soft skills and helped me grow as a professional.

I believe that the Information Technology and Management program at UT Dallas has been a stepping stone that has launched me onto the path of success in my career.
