Simon recently became the first MBA program in the US to offer MBA students a STEM-designated option in any specialization. Rebekah Lewin, Simon Business School's assistant dean of admissions and financial aid, gives an overview of this new offering, gives some background on STEM—science, technology, engineering, and math— discusses the job projections for STEM-related management positions, and breaks down who should consider this option. Spoiler: You can choose to pursue the STEM-designated option regardless of your undergraduate background or previous work experience!

Learn more about the STEM-designated option on our website. If you still have questions, call us at (585) 275-3533 or email us at admissions@simon.rochester.edu
