“I am still in contact with professors from the BARM program, today. Professors would go above and beyond for students to ensure we were set up for success by providing us with insights on what courses and electives would be a good fit based on what we wanted to do, and recommend books and podcasts to help us keep up with the industry we were most interested in.”

Signature experiences
Your business education doesn’t end in the classroom. Step out of your comfort zone as you partner with students across Johns Hopkins and businesses to take your learning to the next level.
“Experiential learning opportunities are crucial because they allow students to challenge themselves and put classroom knowledge to the test. Without practical applications, theoretical learning loses its impact. Students also build valuable connections from the diverse Carey community, and with professionals and industry experts. Business schools are more than just classroom learning. Out-of-class engagements and real-world applications make the Carey experience invaluable.”
