Excerpt from Harvard Business Review — “What if your startup’s first hire wasn’t a person—but an AI agent? This provocative question was at the heart of a semester-long collaboration between Microsoft and NYU Stern’s Tech MBA program. Thirty students, divided into six startup-style teams, were given access to Microsoft 365 Copilot with the latest agent capabilities and asked to reimagine how work gets done when AI is embedded from day one.”

Excerpt from Poets&Quants — “Time flies in b-school. You blink and it’s over,” writes Julian Sutton, a Deloitte hire who graduated from New York University’s Stern School this spring. “So much is thrown at you right out of the gate, and it’s easy to get lost in the chaos. I’ve had such great experiences, met so many incredible people, and learned more than I ever could’ve imagined. If I started it all over, I would just savor each one of those moments even more.”

Excerpt from Poets&Quants — “Living in NYC has always been my dream. Experiencing it as a Stern student is particularly thrilling due to the abundance of activities beyond the classroom. With our campus nestled in lower Manhattan, most attractions are just a short walk away, allowing me to easily enjoy my favorite activities like exploring new restaurants, attending Broadway shows, and participating in talk show tapings. I especially value that the majority of my classmates plan to remain in NYC after graduation, which will strengthen our alumni network and create opportunities for in-person connections for years to come!”

Excerpt from Clear Admit — “Participating in NIIF offers an opportunity for students to not only understand the current landscape of impact investing, but also to apply a vision of what it can become. I’ve come away from the course with a deeper appreciation of the work it takes to meaningfully support businesses pushing forward measurable, positive societal progress. Rather than exist purely as a theoretical exercise in impact investing, NIIF’s structure gives hands-on, real-world experience, allowing the associate class to invest themselves in the deal creation process.”
