ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT
“The faculty here really
strive to provide the best
learning experiences and
networking opportunities.
During my senior year,
I participated in the
Bloomberg Trading

peers, gaining handson
experience in trading and enhancing
my understanding of the financial market.
In addition, thanks to outstanding faculty
support, I was accepted to the graduate
program in Computer Science at Pace
University. I can hardly express how much I
appreciate everything MMC has given me.”

“During my internship at
KIND, I was part of the
digital marketing team.
Through this internship,
I learned how to create
briefs for paid influencers
outlining the expectations
and guidelines for each
monthly post in keeping
with the strategic goal. I really enjoyed the
team meetings, because I learned so much
about the planning and organization it takes
to execute a project.”
