MBA Residency Day
MBA Residency Day is a full-day, on-campus event held on a Saturday during the Spring semester for Professional MBA students. Starting with students admitted in Spring 2026, it will be a mandatory requirement that can be completed at any point during the program, with a recommendation to attend halfway through. The event is offered once a year. For students admitted before Spring 2026, attendance is optional but highly encouraged.
The day includes sessions on leadership, executive presence, career strategy, and personal branding. Students will also have time to connect with peers, alumni, and industry professionals to expand their networks and gain career insights. The event is designed to help students make lifetime connections with others in the UT Dallas community and design, confirm, or move forward their career strategy, ensuring they maximize their MBA experience and long-term professional success.
Learning Beyond the Classroom
The experiences and exposure you gain through the Naveen Jindal School of Management’s MBA program are invaluable and plentiful. You get a wider range of knowledge and skills, and they allow you to tackle any situation you wouldn’t have been able to otherwise. It is through the MBA program that you become a more well-rounded individual with abundant qualifications that make you more than prepared for whatever career path life takes you on in the future.
