Testimonials

"MST has advanced my career by improving my ability to acquire and satisfy customers, make a profit for our investors, and provide a rewarding work experience for our employees.

"Unlike many programs, MST students have much real world experience to share. I gained an insight into how many of the area’s technology companies operate from the people who work there.

"MST course work delivers practical lessons one can apply right away: Both faculty and students bring and contribute invaluable “in-the-trenches” experience."

-- Chris Baker, InterTrust Technologies


"My expectations were exceeded. I got excellent tools... and an appreciation for management as an art. Wonderful personal and professional contacts... students of the highest caliber I've ever seen.

"It was unique to hear Debi Coleman present a Harvard case that had been written about her experience at Apple. "The panel [of venture capitalists and consultants judging the capstone project] said we presented the best business plans of any they had seen at any school, and better than many that had been submitted to them by companies."

-- Linda Devers, Principal Consultant, Cap Gemini America


"I found the classes stimulating from both the academic and practical standpoints. The subject material altered my state of mind.... The education I received has been invaluable to the success of Infinity Softworks."

-- Elia Freedman, President, Infinity Softworks


"Thanks for offering us such a wonderful program at OGI! I was really amazed about how much I can apply the knowledge just learned for my work situations."

-- Lan Lu, Intel Corporation


"The highly competitive Science and Technology via an online format that OGI offers, is at the reach of anyone serious about learning and furthering their knowledge, thanks to this global reality there is an alternative for a better education and future."

-- René Navarro-Gonzalez


"The MST program will certainly catch on and expand. After just one class I'd have to say I was very impressed. Especially when I talk with people who are going through MBA programs! They are really missing out. The experience I have had so far in dealing with OGI and taking the class is what I had always expected an upper level program would be like, and more....The class 'field trip' to a high tech incubator was fantastic...very enlightening."

-- Phillip Woodard, Intel Corporation


"This class has made me extremely marketable and valuable in my organization. I've been ranked at the top of the department due to the applied learnings from the class."

-- Larry Wang, Hewlett-Packard


"The individual care and consideration for each student within the OGI MST program is one clear differentiator between OGI and the average MBA program."

-- Mark Reinke, Intel Corporation


"I joined the MST program to get a M.S. degree. But what I am getting is much more -- insight into paradigms and perspectives that have actually made me more successful and changed my approach to life."

-- Dennis Powers, Vice President, Sales and Marketing, Merix Corporation


"One year ago, I talked to my company about shifting from engineering to program management, and it was felt that I didn't have the background. One year later I've talked to them again, this time with a year of MST coursework under my belt... and soon I will be starting a new job as program manager. The MST program has already helped to launch me in the career direction I want. Thank you for creating an atmosphere for us to think like managers!"

-- Courtney Meissen, RadiSys
