Part-Time MBA Student Life

A Community in Action

At Questrom, you’ll join a lively, thoughtful, and motivated community eager to learn from each other and create value in business and in the world. In class and out, our students seek opportunities to collaborate and take meaningful action.

Getting involved in student clubs and activities helps you connect with others, build your experience and your network, and have fun! Your Questrom experience will be what you make of it. Are you ready to get involved?

Clubs & Events

With club-sponsored conferences, guest speakers, case competitions, and special events, there are countless opportunities for hands-on learning and networking. Part-Time MBA students have plenty of options when it comes to getting involved.

Case Competitions

We believe practice makes perfect, so we invite you to showcase your skills and dive into real business scenarios.  We start by offering a case competition for part-time students during Launch.  After that, many part-time students join a team and compete against students from other schools.  In addition, at Questrom, we run our own Part-Time Case Competition.  Ten teams of students compete over a two-day period for a live client. May the best team win!

Link Day

Link Day is a Questrom tradition everyone looks forward to, our way of connecting with the Greater Boston community. It’s a one-day consulting event that matches mission-driven organizations with teams of full-time and part-time Questrom MBA students and faculty to find solutions for specific business problems. You get hands-on practice. Organizations get new solutions and ideas. That’s what we call win-win!

Student-Led Treks

Adventure awaits! Join a team of students to design your own trek or hop on a trip that’s already planned. Instead of class deliverables, you’ll focus on a concept, place, or project you’ll invent yourself. The location is up to you! Treks have gone to Guatemala to assist budding entrepreneurs and Israel to focus on innovation.

Speaker and Wine Series

Join your fellow part-time students to engage with top business leaders (often alumni), and if you’re inclined, enjoy a glass of wine with the group before or after the presentation.

Student Clubs

Student-run clubs, organizations, and events can be important resources for your career launch and professional development. Guest speaker events, treks to employer sites, service projects, and case competitions are all avenues to networking and building a strong resume.
