Tracey Dolan enhances a 30+ year career with the addition of a WCSU M.H.A.
“This will enhance my ability to understand my role as it relates to every other component of health care. The course work includes strategic planning, financial analysis and more. It helps demonstrate how all the different departments work together at a hospital or in health care in general. Having all these years behind me and my experience combined with the M.H.A. ties it all together nicely. It gives me a deeper dive on how complex our health care system really is.”
WCSU’s 4+1 Cybersecurity M.B.A. welcomed first students in fall 2024
“The 4+1 program will enable me to get an M.B.A. in one year if I work hard. The tuition cost was very appealing, and I already know so many people at WCSU. Everyone from the professors to the staff to President Singh have consistently been nice and accommodating since I’ve been a student here, and it’s a very welcoming community.”
Valerie Massimo’s decision to stay yielded two degrees, a spouse and a great career
“I thrived at WestConn because it was a smaller school. My strengths were that much more apparent. For so many reasons, I’m glad that I stayed.”
At WestConn, Nicole Day found her direction and her true calling
“WCSU is a place where opportunities are born. There are so many ways that this school outshines others. For starters, there is a place for everyone. Every single student can find a safe space for themselves that will help them thrive and prosper.”
Biological Diversity graduate student Maria Silva translates reaching for the trees to research
“The great thing about WestConn is that the classes are small and there are more opportunities to talk to and build relationships with your professors. There are also lots of research options where you are working directly with a faculty member while gaining experience.”
