The school's placement center is in a difficult position. New Orleans is far from industrial bases and other quality schools. As such, not as many firms find it economical to recruit on campus. The placement center does an excellent job setting up opportunities at consortiums in other cities and assisting on location. They are able to bring some firms to campus.
Professors know each student by name and spend extra time outside of class.
Each professor tries to help with job searching. 17 of 20 courses I took at Freeman involved group projects - a strong testament to Freeman's dedication to integrate teamwork and leadership into their curriculum. The program stresses teamwork and international diversity, as well as traditional analytic skills. Through the MBA program, I had the unique experience of studying and working in Hungary for the summer. Also, I was able to more than double my pre-MBA salary.
