Statistics, rankings and course descriptions can help you compare MBA programs, but the real measure of quality

is the caliber and success of a program’s graduates.

“The program opened doors for me,” Payton noted. “Not too many people are blessed with this opportunity, and Texas A&M certainly provided me with key ingredients for success.”

As a managing director in the Global Real Estate Principal Investments (REPI) group at Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Payton is responsible for all of REPI’s real estate investments in Latin America and shares responsibility for investment activities in the United States and Europe. He knows firsthand what it takes to succeed in today’s global economy.

“The reputation of the Texas A&M MBA Program continues to grow,” he noted. “The top students from Texas A&M compete with the top MBA students anywhere.”

For Payton Mayes, MBA Class of 2000, the shortest distance between a dusty West Texas ranch and an executive suite on Wall Street was the Full-Time MBA Program at Texas A&M University.

“I knew Mays was a program on the upswing, and I liked the fact that it provided both a period of intense focus on the core curriculum and the flexibility to concentrate on a particular area of study, as I did in finance,” recalls Kipper Overstreet, Class of 2007. “I selected Texas A&M because of the people I met when I visited. There was a feeling of being welcomed and appreciated by those involved in all aspects of the program.”

As a director with FTI Consulting in Fort Worth, Texas, Kipper is the primary contact between his firm and its clients. He is responsible for analyzing and understanding the often complex challenges facing client operations, and leads the FTI team charged with developing strategies and solutions.

“I integrate my Mays education into everything I do. To address a client’s needs, it is vital that I understand all aspects of a business, from accounting to finance to IT. Once we understand all relevant issues, we then develop recommendations and strategies for implementing necessary changes. My job truly is a culmination of the education I received at Texas A&M.”

CurriculumTexas A&M’s Full-Time MBA Program from Mays Business School is built upon a curriculum designed to develop the knowledge and skills you need to meet the challenges of an increasingly complex and rapidly changing business environment.

As an MBA student at Texas A&M, you will hit the ground running. Our unique and accelerated structure enables you to earn your MBA in 16 months. By covering 36 credit hours of core material in the first nine months of study, you will complete 50% more coursework in your first year than students in traditional MBA programs. This allows you to directly add increased value to your organization during your optional summer internship.

You will return to the program for a second fall semester to complete your MBA curriculum, and then choose whether to continue your education into a fourth semester to specialize in a functional area or complete a certificate program. Each path has advantages.

Choosing to complete your studies in December minimizes your lost income and allows you to return to your career before students from other MBA programs. Continuing your study into the optional spring semester of your second year grants you the opportunity to dig deeply into a specialized content area.

Whichever path you choose, our highly selective admissions process ensures that you learn in small

classes alongside accomplished peers. Our program’s size and structure create a classroom environment that is challenging and engaging, and our culture encourages you to build lifetime relationships with the faculty and your classmates.

Our MBA program offers the unique benefit of a small boutique program at a large university. You learn from world-class faculty and have the flexible curriculum op-tions that come from a Tier-One research institution, while simulta-neously enjoying the small classes, dynamic interactions with peers and faculty, and highly personal experience of a small program.

That’s the reason Vince Castro, Class of 2010, values the experiential learning opportunities offered at Texas A&M.

In Vince’s role as a portfolio advisor for Shell Oil, he manages post-closing issues related to divestitures, company closures and country exits across Latin America — a role where understanding the impact of federal regulation is as critical as the tools he learned from his coursework.

“The Washington Campus offers a unique and rare opportunity to be exposed to the inner workings and inside-the-loop opinions of policy makers in Washington,” Vince said.

“Every decision they make impacts the business world. Getting to hear the stories, listening to the pundits and participating in a few of my own debates pushed me to realize how critical it is for each and every business person to take an active role in shaping legislation that relates or impacts your industry, or else face the wrath of attempting to change law post-fact.”

The Washington Campus was only one of the many opportunities Vince leveraged during his time at Texas A&M to prepare him for optimal career success.

Across the world, natural disasters unexpectedly cause business crises. Each day on Capitol Hill, legislative activities send ripples through the marketplace. Inventors and venture capitalists are constantly searching for the best way to launch a new product. In New York City’s financial district, analysts and traders shape the future of the global economy on a minute-by-minute basis. Knowing how to manage a crisis, understanding the complex and evolving relationship between business and global politics, and making crucial, data-driven decisions are all essential skills if your goal is the corner office.

Experiential Learning

Inside the classroom you learn new skills. Outside the classroom you use them. Our program provides a number of opportunities to apply your knowledge

through unique learning experiences.

mBA VenTure chAllengeA big idea hits your desk. You’ve analyzed the finan-cials. You’ve researched the market. Now, you must present whether or not this company is the next big deal. It’s time to put the skills you acquired in the Texas A&M MBA program to the test.

During the MBA Venture Challenge, teams of MBA students are assigned an actual early-stage firm and tasked with analyzing the products and markets for that company. By competing in this challenge, you will hone your market research, business develop-ment and creative analysis skills in ways only available through this unique competition.

disAsTer ciTy exPerienceSuccessful leaders thrive under the pressure of a crisis. From handling the impact of a natural disaster to leading your company through Chapter 11, learning effective crisis management skills is essential to your effectiveness as a business leader. The Disaster City Experience, a highlight of the first semester of our pro-gram, is a one-of-a-kind crisis management exercise staged at the world-renowned Disaster City training complex. During this day-long experience, you and your classmates are put through a series of exercises

designed to test your leadership, communication and problem-solving skills. Can you work together to “rescue” a teammate from the third story of an office building on fire? Can you talk to the media while your colleagues search for a co-worker in the rubble of an earthquake? Can you push yourself to succeed under extreme physical and mental stress? The training you receive at Disaster City allows you to definitively answer “yes” and know you are ready for the challenges of the business world.

Business consulTing ProJecTFrom Fortune 500 companies to small start-ups, every business has its own unique challenges. Our capstone Business Consulting Project allows you to apply your knowledge and leadership skills as part of a small team of fellow MBA students tackling real-world business issues for business clients. Throughout your final MBA semester, you will work in a team of your peers to research a real-world issue faced by one of our business partners, develop a solution and then present the solution to your client. This project is the culmina-tion of your MBA experience — bringing together the skills, tools and knowledge you have spent the last year developing.

AddiTionAl oPPorTuniTiesAt Texas A&M, you are encouraged to pursue experiential learning opportunities that are specific to your needs and goals. To facilitate this, our program provides partial financial support, in the form of scholarships, for elective experiential learning opportunities.

“The faculty-to-student ratio really allows them to spend the time needed to get to know us individually and help us reach our full potential.”

After obtaining the role of human resources team leader for the Energy Technology Company within Chevron Corporation, Alta was afforded the opportunity to apply the lessons she learned in the Texas A&M MBA Program. In Manila, the capital of the Philippines, she managed the employees at one of Chevron’s Shared Service Centers. Now Alta is the person providing guidance and support to company officials in areas such as strategic workforce planning, knowledge management and performance support. A big part of her approach to that job is based on her Texas A&M experience, especially the example set by a faculty member who encouraged her to pursue her interests and strengths.

“Dr. Mary Lea McAnally is a strong example of the extent to which MBA faculty will go to help you succeed,” she recalled. “She systematically and enthusiastically laid the groundwork for my knowledge and interest in accounting. It’s not about her — it’s about you.”

“They spend quality time with the students to ensure that we ‘get it,’ that we are challenged in our thinking.”

exPerience

Dr. McAnally approaches her courses from a unique perspective — she is there not to “teach” but to create “an opportu-nity to learn.”

“Students file into my class mid-August, and in a few short weeks, they learn the language of business: accounting,” she explains. “Learning to speak any language is a complicated process, and accounting is no exception. Students have to acquire accounting vocabulary, master syntax, learn to read (and to tell) account-ing stories. My students inspire me.”

Her students quickly learn that content is only a part of the challenge in passing Dr. McAnally’s courses.

“I have three goals for my students,” she notes. “First is knowledge acquisition — they should leave the course with a good understanding of accounting nuts and bolts and of the financial reporting pro-cess. Second, they should be able to use accounting information to inform and guide their business decisions. And third, they should begin to see themselves as managers — a goal that requires both experiential learning and self-reflection.”

“The best part of my job is the students themselves. I never tire of coaching and guiding students. I admire their drive, their intelligence, their commitment, their struggle.”

Mentoring students comes naturally to the Texas A&M MBA faculty — it’s part of the program’s culture. You’ll find faculty doors open to your visits, not because it’s departmental policy but be-cause our faculty take a genuine, active interest in their students. At Texas A&M, faculty-student relationships are rich and authentic. From providing contacts to a potential employer to playing golf on the weekend — in a very real sense, our faculty members serve as your mentors.

The Texas A&M MBA Program is built around a shared commitment to the success of each student. Members of the core MBA faculty work closely as a team, integrating philosophies and teaching styles to ensure a more cohesive learning environment.

While it is not surprising to find superior academic credentials among the fac-ulty of a university the caliber of Texas A&M, an impressive number of our faculty are also directly connected to the business world as corporate advisors and consultants. These associations give them — and their students — insight into the real-world challenges facing businesses today.

World-Class Career Management Consulting

There is a reason that Texas A&M University has consistently been ranked as one of the top five public programs, citing an average placement rate of 94.5 percent over the last five years. Our approach to career management is about much more than post-graduation employment. As a Texas A&M MBA, you will develop an individual career management plan based on your specific skills, career interests and goals — a plan that will serve you well beyond obtaining your first job after graduation.

Beginning with a comprehensive one-on-one intake session, the GBCS staff works with you continuously throughout the program. Along with career advice and counseling, they provide assistance with résumés and cover letters, work with you to create job search strategies, and even help negotiate initial job offers. Through their services, you can explore open opportunities using a national employment database, refine your skills in mock interviews with executives, and expand your network with connections to employers and former students.

By providing individual consulting and mentoring services to our MBA students, the GBCS staff gets to know each student as a whole. This allows the staff to directly refer highly qualified students for open positions — an efficient and effective way to match employers with the right candidates — which gives our students an advantage in the competitive MBA job market.

Among MBA students, strong academic skills are a given. The world-class career management services of Graduate Business Career Services (GBCS) focus on helping you develop the skills that set you apart in the market.

“When I first started in the Texas A&M MBA Program, I was unsure of which functional business area best suited my talents and interests. I also struggled with finding ways to market the leadership skills I developed in the military.”

The Legendary Aggie Network

As a Texas A&M MBA student, you will become a member of the legendary Aggie Network, one of the best-known alumni organizations in the world. Native Nicaguarian Carlos Stadthagen, Class of 2004, learned firsthand the reach and power of this network.

“I owe the job I have today to an Aggie I had never met,” he recalled. “After graduating in the 2004 MBA class, I returned to Nicaragua and went to work at a local bank. About six months later, I got a call from Cisa Exportadora, a part of the Mercon Coffee Group. It was only after they hired me that I discovered that I had been recommended for my job by an Aggie who worked in another division of our parent company.”

The Aggie Network is special. You can be an alumna or alumnus anywhere, but once you join the Texas A&M family, you will always belong — as either a “current student” or a “former student.” The distinction is small, but it makes a big difference in how former students interact. Meeting former students from Texas A&M is about connecting through your common past. The network is large, with a range of diverse backgrounds, but what you find is a connection that is both powerful and sincere.

As an MBA student at Texas A&M, you will become a member of one of the largest alumni networks in the world, with nearly 300,000 former students and over 200 local alumni chapters around the world. This means that, as an Aggie, you are sure to find access, wherever you are, to a network of businessmen and women, engineers and architects, physicians and veterinarians, teachers and scholars — all of whom are committed to serving their fellow Aggies. You won’t find this kind of loyalty anywhere else.

Return on Investment

The Full-Time MBA Program at Texas A&M is an exceptional value. Our program is among the most affordable in the nation, and our unique 16-month structure minimizes your lost income from time away from the workforce. Add to that the comparatively low cost of living in Bryan/College Station, and the result is a remarkably affordable MBA opportunity.

Scholarship support is available on a competitive basis to all admitted MBA candidates — no separate application is necessary. Because we recognize the value of geographic diversity, resident tuition status is granted to scholarship recipients who are not Texas residents.

As you explore MBA options, consider this: Over the last five years, our graduates earned an average of over $100,000 (including bonuses and other compensation) immediately after completing the program, tripling their tuition investment after just one year.

Our value proposition is clear — the Texas A&M MBA maximizes the return on your educational investment.

“Any MBA program will keep you busy, so being located in a smaller city where everything is easily accessible is a helpful advantage when your time is limited.”

Amy also has an appreciation for the opportunities that attending a university the size of Texas A&M provided to her. “The resources available to you at Texas A&M are virtually limitless — more exist than you would ever be able to take advantage of or even explore. The staff that manages the various resources available to you is extremely knowledgeable and oftentimes knows what you need for a given project better than you do yourself.”

Located in what Money Magazine has described as one of America’s most livable communities, Texas A&M University is an ideal home for one of the country’s premier MBA programs.

Texas stands as one of the strongest corporate environments in the United States, home to global leaders in a variety of industries including technology, finance and energy. This strong business climate provides many opportunities for our MBA students to network with key corporate leaders in their fields of interest.

Crossing the plaza between Mays Business School facilities on Texas A&M’s convenient west campus, it’s easy to forget that this is a part of the nation’s sixth-largest university. You seldom encounter a stranger on the Texas A&M campus, which is known for its friendly, inclusive culture.

LocationAs a world leader in teaching, research and public service, Texas A&M’s triple designation as a land, sea and space grant institution reflects a broad range of research. With an enrollment of more than 48,000 students in 10 academic colleges, Texas A&M ranks in the top 20 American research institutes in terms of funding.

The twin cities of Bryan and College Station, home to the Texas A&M campus, offer amenities such as museums and concerts typical of much larger metropolitan areas. A community of just over 170,000 people, Bryan/College Station boasts a cost of living 19 percent below the national average — further contributing to the value of a Texas A&M education.

Bryan/College Station is centrally located — only a short drive from San Antonio, Dallas and Houston, 3 of the 10 largest cities in the United States. Further demonstrating that this is a community that truly has it all, Bryan/College Station has been recognized by Kiplinger’s as one of the 10 greatest cities for raising families, and by Forbes as one of the best college sports towns in the United States. You won’t find a better location for pursuing your dreams than ours.
