"I have always wanted to go back to school for an MBA, and I was really excited to learn there was an Executive Health MBA program at CU Denver Business School. The flexibility of the program allowed me to continue to work full-time at the hospital while completing the program. Since all classes are geared towards healthcare, I was able to apply much of what I learned into my current position. I have no doubt my experience as an Executive MBA student will help me throughout the rest of my career.
