Hettie Richardson, interim dean for the TCU Neeley School of Business, said the graduate program has an outsized return on investment through its focus on student resources and industry connections across North Texas and beyond.
“Our students have access to real-world experience and an individualized, personal journey to accelerate and amplify their knowledge and skills,” Richardson said in a release. “Neeley graduates are innovative thinkers, who are prepared for the future of business and ready to lead the way.”
