A Message from the Dean
Thank you for joining us for the 2020 Elevate U Women’s Symposium! Our business school is dedicated to empowering women in the workplace and providing opportunities for everyone to learn the skills necessary to succeed as business leaders. Our dedication to these values, both at the David Eccles School of Business and the University of Utah, has attracted some of the brightest female faculty, students, and business leaders, including President Ruth Watkins, the first woman to lead our university. Our programs provide women the opportunity to further their business knowledge at any time in their career, with four MBA formats and non-degreed Executive Education courses. The true success of our students, however, is seen in their return on investment for their education. On average, our full-time MBA students see a 105% salary increase at graduation, while our part-time MBA students see a 25 - 35% increase. While our Eccles community celebrates the accomplishments of our women students, faculty, and leaders, our scope reaches beyond our campus. We lead by example and aim for our leaders to pave the way for Utah women in business.
When women thrive, Utah thrives!
