The University of Texas at Dallas Reviews of MBA Programs

"Ranking in top 35 of MBA schools in the US by US News and World Report, the Naveen Jindal School of Management at the University of Texas at Dallas is one of the best values in the country. Along with an MBA, I will be earning a MS in Supply Chain Management. This school is ranked number 2 in the nation for this discipline. Due to tuition being set using tiers, one can achieve an MBA for around $40,000. Set in Richardson, the University of Texas at Dallas has a beautiful campus with everything reachable by walking. The campus also has various areas to spend nice Texas days outside to study or have group meetings. The professors and teaching assistants are what make this campus awesome. They are very willing to help you succeed in class and beyond. I have had a couple of instances when I email them and I receive replies within a couple of hours. Living in the Dallas metroplex can be difficult with commuters. This is what I see as the only con. For me to reach class on time, I must travel on toll roads after work, but on my way home, I can skip these."

"The classes are relatively small compared to undergraduate. This is definitely a pro because you bond with the other students and can have better and more frequent interaction with the professors. Even though the classes are small, there is definitely diversity of backgrounds in these classes. This brings a great wealth of information that is in addition to the actual academic value -- not to mention developing long-time friendships. I honestly can't think of a con to this school."

"The school is small so you definitely get that one on one attention with your professors which is a great benefit. Since the school is very academic driven I wish they would extend their library hours and offer more on campus resources such as more restaurants to eat at."

"The UT Dallas MBA program is teaching me skills that I can put to immediate use in the workplace."

"The Cohort MBA program (Full-time) gives me awesome experience during past 15 months. I will highly recommend full-time MBA program of UT Dallas to my friends if they ask me my advice about how to choose their school."

"I like the life in UTD. The beautiful scenery and friendly faculty bring me a lot of happiness. It was my first year in UTD, I'm not sure if the education quality was as high as it said, but I like the atmosphere in every class. One little disappointment, sometimes it is really inconvenient for students who live in somewhere off campus."

"pros, 1.As cohort MBA, you can enjoy much more advantages than other masters concerning education and career support. 2. As it is stated on the official website, it is a small program(67 of Cohort 2015) with big benefit. We are more closely connected with second year students,alumni and faculty. 3. Dallas's strong economy. Most all of international students can find a job if they wish, not to mention local students. 4. All the courses are quite practical, prepare us for future work. 5. not expensive living here. 6. most students can receive some scholarship,although rarely anyone can get full scholarship. 7. you only need to finish minimum 10 credits to get a dual degree in school of management. Cons, 1. heavy course load, have to finish 53 credits in 16 months. 2. most graduates will work in texas, very little reputation outside Texas."

"Its a Great school with some amazing faculty & research"

"UTD provides the perfect platform for us for a great future. The students are smart, the faculty is amazing and the infrastructure and campus are incredible."

"Pros: UT Dallas's Full-Time MBA program is great value for cost to domestic/international students as well as substantial scholarship but a fair price to those paying sticker price. Their network in Dallas is excellent, and will continue to grow more competitive with SMU as UTD rises in the MBA rankings. I've found my classmates to not only be diverse in experience, nationality, and personality, but also found they are professional, friendly, and aspire toward achievement. Cons: It's a relatively new player as a top 40-50 Full-Time MBA program, so the network outside of Dallas and outside Texas still needs to grow. For that reason, it might not be the right choice (for now) if you want to become an investment banker on Wall Street. While I think it's good practice for real world situations, it's fair to disclose that you may participate on teams with those who have some proficiency but are not fully fluent in English (though I've seen rapid language learning in less than a full first semester.)"

"Pros: 1. Program requires no weekend classes 2. Classmates are bright and competitive Cons: 1. School makes limited use of technology to support students that miss class due to travel for work 2. Faculty teaching aptitude is hit or miss"

"The University of Texas at Dallas Naveen Jindal School of Management offers a great education at a reasonable price compared to many other institutions around the state and the country. There are social and networking events that take place throughout the semester. Below are some of the pros and cons for UT Dallas: Pros: many great professors case competitions variety of clubs career expos/ professional networking school expansion to better accommodate student needs Cons: lack of financial aid/scholarship for graduate students grossly overpriced books at the on-campus bookstore"

"UTD is a great school that has a lot to offer for any student that would like to advance their career."

"UTD is a great school that offers a vast amount of services for Working professionals that seek to have a quality education. I would admonish anyone to take the EMBA course and I promise you will not regret it. J. James"

"UTD's graduate MBA program is great and has several different awards that they have received for their academic performance. The atmosphere is wonderful and the students are all conscientious of success. Although, there is a slight divide because of so many international students. The social atmosphere becomes aggregated and classmates stick to "their people". I love the school, but I wish there were more ways to involve the many classes of students."
