Beyond Consulting: How MBAs Build Meaningful Careers Across Industries
What does an MBA career look like beyond the “usual” paths like consulting?
Join Clear Admit and the Vanderbilt Owen Graduate School of Management for a candid, alumni-led conversation about building meaningful, impactful careers across industries you might not immediately associate with business school.
In this live webinar, a panel of Owen alumni—Luke Engelhardt (MBA’24), Shannon Redfield (MBA’25), and Diep Nguyen (MBA’25)—will share how they’ve leveraged their MBAs to carve out distinctive, purpose-driven careers beyond traditional post-MBA roles. Moderated by current Owen MBA student Maree Smith (MBA’26), the discussion will explore how skills gained in business school translate across sectors, how to navigate non-linear career paths, and how to design a career that aligns with your values and interests.
Whether you’re considering an MBA, currently applying, or rethinking what’s possible with a business degree, this session will broaden your perspective on what an MBA can truly unlock.
Date: February 19
Time: 11:00 AM CST / 12:00 PM EST
