Which B-schools? :)

by Alex_Mironoff » Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:16 pm
Hi, guys! :)

Reading about an applicants and their thoughts about dream-jobs and dream-companies I was trying to imagine "what's mine?". And after a long-long period of comprehension I was strucked by one thought: "Well, I am a sportsman. All my life all my free time I dedicated to sports so why I never thought about working in some sports company???" So, I realized, that it's really what I want, and I hadn't even a question what sports company it's gonna be - of course "NIKE"! :)

So, I got a question for you, guys - which B-schools can give the best opportunity to work in "NIKE" after graduation?

Of course I know about the Stanford, but it would be curious if you can write some more B-schools because I couldn't find any...

Thanks in advance, Alex! :)

Well, their US headquarters is in Oregon. I imagine they would have some connection to University of Oregon. Upon checking, UoO has purportedly the best Sports MBA in the country and has a close relationship with Nike.

Ferma, thanks a lot!

I knew about Nike headquarter in Oregon, but never heard about UoO! Now I found it in US News ranking - 91 place - I will read about this program more!

Once again - big thanks! :)
