| "I chose Mercer for its convenience and value. I was very impressed by the faculty members. They seemed really to care about their students. Completing Mercer's Executive MBA program gave me a different perspecitive for my job. I am a scientist working for one of the world's largest marketing companies. I can now communicate better with marketing people and better link what I can do with the company's business objectives. While I am still a scientist, I now think and talk like a business person." |

When John Hough began the EMBA program at Mercer University, he was working for the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Shortly after receiving his MBA degree, he accepted his current position with the National Institutes of Health in Washington, DC.
"I know that earning the MBA helped to put my job application near the top of the stack. I also know my increased competitiveness came not just from earning an MBA, but from having earned it from Mercer because of its national reputation for excellence." |

 "As a full-time business professional, I searched several years for the right MBA program to fit my professional, intellectual and personal growth needs. I walked into the doors of Mercer looking for a good graduate program, but what I found was an exceptional graduate school curriculum, a nurturing environment, high-caliber instructors, and a family filled with pride and commitment. |
Selecting the Mercer program was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. Today I stand firm as a happy Mercer alum, and I encourage others to take the opportunity to pursue the experience I found."

For international consultant Greg Benza, a native of Mauritania in northwest Africa near Morocco, Mercer University's Atlanta campus helped him get a firm grasp of the English language, overarching economic principles and the American business landscape.
"At Mercer, I had small class sizes, wonderful resources and professors who gave me individual attention. From the time I enrolled to the time I graduated with my MBA, Mercer provided the support I needed. Other universities in the area didn't have that same one-on-one approach" |

"Providing quality health care is critical to the well-being of a community and its citizens. It is, in fact, serious business. Doing that successfully requires a thorough understanding of business and how to apply those principles to today's fast-pace health care industry.
Mercer's Master of Science in Health Care Management Program helps students gain the skills to balance those important elements. The faculty taught not only the business theory, but also its application in real situations. I started my career in health care because I wanted to make a difference in peoples' lives. I earned my master's degree in Health Care Management because I want to perform my job at the highest level."

That was very important to me since I was working full time and looking to change my current career path. Immediately upon graduation, I was offered a middle management position with a new company."
