Breaking Barriers in Business: Veteran Journeys at SMU Cox

The SMU Cox community is made up of driven, business-minded individuals from a wide array of backgrounds and experiences. Each student brings a unique story, and our goal with the Breaking Barriers in Business series is to amplify these voices, celebrating the many perspectives and communities that make Cox a place where every student can thrive.

In this next installment, Veteran Journeys at SMU Cox, we highlight the journeys of military-affiliated students who have transitioned from service to business school and beyond. These students bring a unique combination of leadership, resilience, and global perspective, qualities that enrich the classroom and strengthen the Cox community.

Join us as current veteran and military-affiliated students share how they have navigated the transition to graduate business education, leveraged their experiences in the classroom, and built meaningful connections within the Cox network and the Dallas business community. Panelists will also reflect on career pathways, resources available to veterans, and how an MBA or Specialized Master’s degree can accelerate your next chapter

The SMU Cox Admissions team will also be present to provide an overview of our graduate programs and offer guidance on how to position your experience and stand out in the admissions process.
