Hear from Our Students
The new Biotechnology Track initially caught my eye when I was applying to graduate programs, and after some research, I realized the M.S. in Commerce program gave students an incredible advantage, both academically and professionally in just a few months. McIntire’s vast network of alumni and well-known faculty sold me on the program, and I couldn’t be happier.
