Poets and Quants logo
Excerpt from Poets & Quants--  "'At Stern, we have many professors who are intellectually stimulating, care for their students, and love teaching. My favorite professor would have to be Ian D’Souza. I took his New Venture Financing class in the fall on Thursday evenings. He brought so much energy to the three-hour class and created a very engaging environment with lots of student participation. He’s extremely knowledgeable and approachable. He scheduled insightful one-on-one mid-term feedback sessions with each of his 45 students to ensure we understood the material. He also used the time to casually chat and ask if there is anything he could assist with. I enjoyed his class so much that I enrolled in his Digital Currency and Blockchains course this semester.'

Excerpt from Poets & Quants-- " At New York University’s Stern School, Dimitri Pun is following in Bezos’ footsteps. A former student council president and winner of NYU’s Design Thinking Competition, Pun recently joined Twitter as an associate product manager. For him, the biggest lesson he carries into the tech sector is the importance of asking questions."
 
"'The Public Sector Plays An Integral Part In Business: 'As part of the Business and Political Economy program, I’ve learned that “institutions matter.” Businesses interact with and rely on a complex network of governmental and cultural institutions in order to succeed. I didn’t truly grasp this concept until I spent a year studying abroad in London and Shanghai, where I was able to witness first-hand how the success of businesses depends greatly on the political structures, cultural norms, and laws and regulations present in a given market (e.g. Brexit!). The private and public sectors are much more intertwined than I ever imagined, and studying business internationally helped me gain a holistic and cross-cultural understanding of why institutions matter in the corporate world.'

Poets and Quants logo
Excerpt from Poets & Quants-- "I chose Stern because, at my core, I am a community-driven person. Stern’s full-time class size of approximately 350 students is, in my opinion, the sweet spot. It is small enough that everyone knows most of their classmates, but not so small that everyone is in each other’s business. This is a thread that also connects my choice of undergraduate institution, previous employer, and post-MBA company. Having a strong sense of community is important to me."
