Tuesday, August 10, 2021 "I would recommend Point Park to any student who is looking for opportunity. Being in a large city creates more opportunities for the career path that I have chosen. I have visited and worked in all the venues in Pittsburgh either from my experiences in class or through other networking events. I can truly thank Point Park for that as the faculty have given me the knowledge, connections and desire to want to dive into the SAEM industry."

Tuesday, March 9, 2021 "What drew me instantly to Point Park were its downtown location and ties to surrounding arts organizations. The SAEM program teaches you the fundamentals of business, but they also allow you to use what you’ve learned to branch out into a field that interests you."
