The Darden School of Business is a thriving community of MBA students, faculty, staff, and alumni from a diverse array of racial, ethnic, religious, cultural, socio-economic and sexual orientations. Because of the highly participatory nature of the MBA program — both inside and outside of the classroom — Darden actively recruits and fosters a diverse MBA community.
Darden’s international students continue to find success in an increasingly global economy. Employers seek the diverse, multifaceted skillset that international students bring to the table and that the Career Center team helps cultivate.
In addition to one-on-one career counseling from a Career Center industry expert, international students and students seeking global careers receive coaching from Denise Karaoli, director of international student careers.
