Major and year:
Finance and Economics major; 2nd-year transfer student
How you heard about IME:
I first heard about IME during my time volunteering with previous IME students at the Dhillon Business Students Association (DBSA) in my first year here. They introduced me to what the program is about and their experience with it, from there, I looked up more information on the website and the rest is history!
Why you chose IME:
After hearing so many good things about the program, I decided that it was exactly what I needed the next step of my academic career to be. The program forces you to step out of your comfort zone as well as help you develop and hone the ability to think outside the box, communicate efficiently, and other essential skills you will need during your career. It also provides a safe environment to explore your creativity and strategic thinking, to find new sides of yourself, and grow.
In addition to that, I chose IME because it will look good on my resume. Being part of such a program is exactly another one of the elements needed to stand out from other candidates when vying for a job.
Overall, I highly recommend the program to every student.

Where do see yourself in 5-10 years:
