Fiona Murtagh | Olympic Medallist and Professional Athlete
What I believe makes the MBA so unique is everyone’s different backgrounds, there is such a depth of knowledge and experience sharing ideas in the same room. We always leave the classroom energized and inspired, having received that golden nugget of information which we are able to take home with us and actively use in both our professional and personal lives. Choosing to study the MBA at the University of Galway has allowed me to start thinking about the future without jeopardizing the present. The quality of this course has accelerated my professional and personal development, and I am a better person having come through this program. The part-time aspect allows me to give equal priority to both my studies and my training, giving me confidence that I have chosen the right place to progress my career and prepare me for life after sport.
John O'Shea | Director of Operations - Meissner
University of Galway MBA offered me networking possibilities nationally and specifically in the west of Ireland. Also, for the block release and blended learning approach enabled me to step out of my day job for a short period each month, and focus on the learnings for those days I had dedicated to the MBA. The investment in the MBA paid off immediately. In the middle of the MBA programme, I was successful in becoming director of operations for the Californian based pharmaceutical filtration company Meissner, which was setting up its first European manufacturing facility in Castlebar, Co Mayo. I can 100 per cent say this opportunity would not have materialised without the recognition of the value of an MBA, and most importantly the learnings and friendships gained from my classmates during the MBA programme."

Angela Onwukwe | CEO, Nuvie Consulting
The University of Galway was a holistic transformative experience in my personal and career growth. I acquired a lot of leadership skills in the last two years through learning to solve real life problems for organisations. The program was properly structured to increase self-awareness, improve self-confidence, enable and encourage an environment of togetherness and a “collective win” spirit from the start. This approach created a relaxed atmosphere which made it easy for us to network, build relationships, interact freely and learn from each other’s experience. There were several highlights of the program which includes our leadership sessions, business consulting project, our class trip to New York and mentorship. I have learned lifelong skills which has ignited thoughts of a new career path in Business Consulting.
Ross Doherty | Director Of Portfolio & Ecosystem, Normative.io
Completing the MBA gave me the business and leadership acumen and credentials needed to open doors within my organization and externally, allowing me to credibly apply for roles and take responsibilities that previously were out of my reach; and am now gearing up for a major vertical move within my company
Emma Corcoran | Global Extrusion Lead at TE Connectivity
My biggest learning was that it really is the power of diversity. Why are you doing an MBA? You’re doing an MBA to progress to the next level, and either be director or CEO etc. I think it’s really important that when you’re selecting teams, when you’re looking for people to work with, go for that diversity, go for different views, go for people who have the absolute opposite views to you, where they’re really going to challenge what you have so you end up getting the best out of it.
