If you're considering studying for your MBA degree in a new country, it's likely you're an ambitious individual who likes to push themselves outside of their comfort zone. Yet it's perfectly acceptable to feel nervous about the prospect of travelling across the world to study and live in a new country. 

BusinessBecause teamed up with Old Dominion University (ODU) Strome College of Business for the latest edition of our webinar series, which is designed to help international MBA students thrive as they transition to the US for business school. 

ODU faculty, MBA alumni, and students provide practical advice on adapting to the academic and professional landscape, building valuable networks, and leveraging resources to enhance your MBA experience and career prospects. 

With moderation by BusinessBecause senior writer, Shannon Cook, panelists include:

Dionicia Mahler-Rogers - associate director for leadership and career programs, ODU

Natalia Rectenwald - alumni, ODU MBA, and director of corporate relations, US Bomb Technician Association

Rezu Poudel - current student, ODU MBA

Key takeaways from this webinar:

→ How to network with peers and benefit from student associations and clubs
→ Navigating career opportunities as an international student, including advice on the H1B visa
→ Making the most of support systems such as Graduate Administrative Assistantships and internships
