Try a new path to success
After successful completion of graduate-level study at the University of Chicago through GSAL, our students have been accepted into Master's and PhD programs in the humanities, social sciences, biological sciences, medical school, law school, public policy, social work, and other fields, both in the United States and overseas.
I soon realized that GSALB was much more than [attending classes]. Class discussions turned into new areas of academic interest, peers turned into friends, and goals turned into realities. I expanded my network while giving my business school applications an extra competitive edge
Oona Haffey, Business Consultant at Ernst and Young
My goal in joining GSALB is to boost my career path within people analytics and develop as a leader that builds colleagues’ strengths. I would love to find a position that can open the doors not just for future Latino professionals, but other minorities seeking to grow in their careers.
