"Im a graduate finance student at UTD. The teacher give clear class presentation. In all of my class so far, the teacher will give the lecture notes to you, the notes are very helpful and you just need to add some additional points as the professors are explaining. There is a lot of homework and outside class studying that you need to do. Overall the faculties are excellent. The cons is some of the department lacks of customer service skills when you ask them questions (not the faculty). Also, there are a lot of students from China, I wish I can meet more students from other countries."

"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."

"Pros are an upcoming business school and the job opportunities in the supply chain sector which again is a rising field. The cons would perhaps be a lack of active program marketing in the developing countries to attract top tier talent which is needed for long term success of a school."

"Since I came to the campus, I have felt at "home". This feeling, coupled with the enthusiasm of the students and staff, invigorates my learning. I am networking and meeting dynamic individuals who have my best interest to achieve at heart. The projects and group projects are challenging. The best part of my program is the staff offers real world experience to support the concepts taught in the classroom!"

"I joined UT Dallas because I was already living in Dallas but I should say I have not regretted my choice even a bit. The school has a stellar academic reputation. Faculty is top notch and the courses offered are very relevant to the industry. The work done by Career Management Center is noteworthy. All their sessions are very informative that all we need to do is attend them. Dallas being the new job hub, school has location-advantage as well. There are only two cons I can think of. One is that school should increase the number of Financial aids considering the increased intake for graduate courses. Second one is that UT Dallas is not a party college like UT Austin or A&M which can be a let down for "party animals"."

"I think my program is great in terms of real world learning. I get to know not just what is written in books but how it is applied, what is the problem real world is facing. It gives me a chance to think that a degree could do way more than just getting you a job. It empowers you with the knowledge you need to excel. Thanks to UTD."

"I think the biggest advantages of this university is it's superb faculty and the close relation with the industry. It much easier to find an internship and full time offer thanks to the Career Center. I think the two problems or disadvantages is that the on campus accommodation should be increased and also the campus is kind of small compared to the other big universities."

"The graduate programs are very good. The thing that impresses me is the flexibility with the subjects that we need to take. The professors are very welcoming. The thing that i had a issue with is sometimes it gets difficult to get the subjects that we wish to take. Its a kind of lucky draw. Other than this minor thing i am very satisfied."

"The faculty at UTD is excellent. The requirements to enroll are getting harder every year, so if you are thinking about it, jump on it. Next year you might not qualify. The school is very competitive. The mean GMAT of accepted candidates is in the high 600s and the talent of the student body is evident. UT Dallas is an exciting place to be right now."

"The faculty handling the MS Marketing program are extremely knowledgeable and an absolute delight to converse with. They provide an enriching experience in the classroom and make you feel connected to the actual world of marketing. Being an international student, this program has definitely increased my knowledge and awareness of the country and various firms. I do not think there are cons related to this program.However, limited job opportunities is what an international student might have to face. There are several opportunities for students not requiring visa sponsorship."

"I am in my first semester of MS Marketing program and I really like the structured program being offered here with specific tracks which you can take in marketing. Course curriculum is good and it does offer current marketing topics industry exposure.However, a strong network with employers need to be developed so as to get opportunities for potential international candidates as well. As a whole,alumni base need to be leveraged so as to establish good industry network for school."
