Ruth

"The McGill Japan MBA Program offers a strong analytical business and strategy framework and makes students "grow" a true business mind; it further has made me feel at par with business counterparts who have MBAs and the knowledge that comes with it. This has enhanced my leverage in business negotiations."

-Ruth Rooyackers, Class of 2000

Clinton

"It is not possible for me to single out a particular [most valuable] experience as it is really the accumulation of experiences throughout the Program that counts. It is really a two-year transformation process."

-Clinton Gass, Class of 2000

Yoji

"My classmates were a good mix of people, from a wide range of backgrounds and cultures. Classmates had significant real world experience and a high level of maturity. This was reflected many times in class discussions and project work, in which classmates were willing to discuss concepts rigorously, and able to disagree constructively."

-Yoji Yoshizawa, Class of 2001

Ram

"[Prospective students should] understand the requirements of the program - it is challenging, demanding, and fast-paced. Apply what you learn - put your learning into practice right away. Be open minded - keep your eyes and ears open - there is no limit to learning from the McGill environment - inside and outside the classroom."

-Ram Ottikkutti, Class of 2001

Shunichiro

"The most interesting thing I learned was that many classmates have been thinking about their career path very seriously, and they were considering McGill MBA Japan not as career goal, but as critical experience to move up to their next career stage."

-Shunicho Matsumoto, Class of 2004

James

"[The] program not only met most of my expectations, it brought out an appreciation of the efforts of everyone involved - professors were very hands on and accessible, classmates were generous with time/effort in group work, and the administration helped make things happen."

-James Heine, Class of 2004
