What Our Students Say
I chose Katz Graduate School because of the school’s reputation with renowned faculty, experiential learning opportunities, excellent return on investment, and the welcoming city of Pittsburgh!
My favorite courses are the “weekend intensives” taught by faculty with industry-specific experience as a business owner or executive-level position, often in the Pittsburgh region.
“I chose Katz because of the community sense that the University of Pittsburgh provided. It’s like being in a large and warm family, people look after each other and build strong connections.
