Student Testimonials

Students in the IMBA Program are rising managers and entrepreneurs from diverse fields. Much of the learning comes from the interaction with other students through class discussions, activities and teamwork.

Colin Ohler

"As an engineer who has worked his way into upper management, I found areas of business where I lacked the foundations needed to make sound business decisions. Through the Iowa MBA program, I obtained strong fundamentals in all general areas of business. What has been particularly pleasing to me is that my way of thinking was challenged, allowing me to grow in new areas where I had little experience. Following the completion of the program I am able to develop and lead our new China business to greater success, and fulfill my dream of not just experiencing but contributing to the development of capitalism in China."

“I am running a family business and I feel the need to further consolidate my knowledge in business management. I felt that the Tippie School of Management was the way to go! The school sends their faculty over from Iowa City, U.S. to teach the classes here in Hong Kong. Their faculty members were willing to share their personal experience with the students, both in class and after class. Also, the professors endeavored to strike a balance between theoretical and practical knowledge when they were teaching. Last but not least, the fact that the class was composed of students from different national origins opened my eyes to cultural diversity.”

Ted Chan

“I have been working in the banking industry for many years and I fully understand the importance of good business practices. Some of the courses in the IMBA program suited my interests quite well. For example, there was a class which required the students to take part in a computer-based simulation game. Not only was I particularly interested in gaming, but also the knowledge I acquired from the game was practical and it involved a great deal of decision making and reasoning. These elements are particularly essential to business operation. Overall, I enjoyed the class very much.”

"The Tippie IMBA gave me the flexibility I needed to complete the program. This course is highly interactive, which is completely different from the Hong Kong education system. I have developed friendships and business contacts with my classmates from various nationalities, enhancing my life in many ways. I was impressed by the well-structured curriculum, as courses were highly adaptable to current business trends."

Kenneth Chan

“I was very impressed by the prompt responses from the faculty. The college offers various effective channels for communicating with the professors, not only throughout the course, but also before and after classes. Moreover, the IMBA course helps students to build their own business expertise. Students are stimulated to apply knowledge from the classroom to practical situations at work. For example, a course on stock evaluation can benefit people working in the banking and finance industry as they can put those theories into practice. I am happy to be able to use the theoretical knowledge I learned in my real-life experience!”
