MBA in Technology Commercialization

by menacher » Wed Nov 13, 2013 12:04 am
I'm currently an undergraduate (senior) in electrical engineering at a "public ivy" and am working in my professors startup helping him commercialize academic research. I enjoy the biz dev and like his business model he's created for bringing in funding to commercialize new technologies. I'd like to get an MBA at a top school and focus early stage investments.

Any ideas of what would be a good school?

My stats:
EE from Public Ivy GPA 3.3
ECs: President of EE student group, TA multiple quarters, research assistant for 6 quarters, received 1 patent
Haven't taken GMAT yet but I perform well at standardized tests. Recently took GRE and got Math: 170 and Verbal: 167.
First generation college student
Worked full time at a fortune 200 company during school
Accepted full time offer at same company as a level 3 design engineer (unheard of for new grads)
Planning to continue with professors startup while working full time

Feedback would be great!
