Brandeis International Business School

Why did you choose Brandeis International Business School?

I'm a father with two kids and I wanted to bring them to Massachusetts to be educated. I chose Brandeis International Business School because the programs are STEM-designated, meaning that I'll have a three-year OPT period, rather than one year. It's critical for me to have longer legal status to stay in the U.S.

What kind of work or research are you interested in?

My MBA program is concentrated in Data Analytics and Finance. I'm currently looking for a position as a financial analyst in the greater Boston area. I'm interested in finance and I feel fulfillment when working with numbers to find insights hidden within the data.

What are your career goals?

My career goal is twofold. First, I have to settle down as a financial analyst and utilize my skills in finance and data analytics. After five years or so, I'm planning to start my own business in real estate. I have working experience in real estate development in China and I really like this industry.

What do you enjoy most about being at Brandeis?

Learning about the most cutting-edge knowledge. I enjoy the financial modeling and engineering, machine learning algorithms, computer simulation and risk management, options and derivatives, fixed incomes and securitization, Python programming and information visualization.

What are you most proud of in your academic or professional life?

I am proud that I took 20 credits every semester and earned As and Bs for all of them. I really enjoy studying advanced topics in Finance and Data Analytics. I'm proud of these courses because I know not all business schools offer such cuttingedge courses.
