Den of Blue Devils - DUKE申请答疑帖

以下是引用eutopia在2007-5-4 13:47:00的发言：

我也终于毕业了，看到2006届的学长还在这里继续支持Fuqua, 义不容辞，我也重出江湖。作为2007届毕业生，我希望能在这里帮助所有对Duke MBA感兴趣的朋友。如果我没有及时回答，可能是因为在准备新工作，但我会尽力而为。

马上就要和奋斗两年的中国同学告别，作了一个小的photo clip, 作为对我们2007届同学的纪念和对Duke MBA的留恋和感激，也让前人和来者共同感受一下我们Duke MBA中国同学的生活。我很庆幸当年选择了Duke, 因为我能认识他们当中的每一位。

Seasons come and seasons go,

Never did they fly so.

Moments captured and moments past,

Forever in my heart will they last.

This is so moving... wish you guys the best luck.

问一下dukers

我想在May 21st 去duke school visit, 不知道你们那时还有课吗? 想去class visit.

我对duke的 Health Sector Management很感兴趣, 不知道能不能介绍一位HSM在读的duker? 想问一下申请和program的一些具体的东西, 谢先.

5月21号学校已经没人上课了。二年级毕业典礼是5月13号结束，一年级也全都去实习了。下一届新生最早也是七月初开始summer institute,  所以不会有class visit.

个人觉得HSM对有医疗背景的人比较合适（如果想找marketing, sales, general management或者strategic planning等性质的工作），如果以前没有工作经验但想转入该行业，会相对困难。我本人有拿到 J&J Medical Device 中国的工作，但是属于functional area, 不需要行业背景。每年都会有几家大的医药公司来Duke招人，比如Boston Scientific Group, Amgine, J&J (big recruiter and they love Dukers very much), Eli Lilly, Pfizer, Medtronic，KCI, Bristol-Myers Squibb (一年级有两个国际学生今年拿到暑假实习）等等. 课程介绍学校网站上都有, 我可以把我们年级这个专业的同学介绍给你。希望对你有帮助。Good luck.

The special price for Alexan Place is true. Two one-bed-room floor plans(one is 832 sq feet, another is 828 sq feet) are priced at $695. They also provide one month free if you sign the 9 months lease. You need to explicitly ask for that. It is really a good deal. The application and adm fee is $100 in total.

The one bed-room plan in Pinnacle Ridge is from $675-$755 including washer and drier. The application and adm fee is $195. No one-month-free promotion.

FYI

Just add some more info here.

I visited several apts Saturday, and both Alexan Place and Alexan Farm are super nice.  One bedroom (828sf) at Alexan Farm asks $765 (if starts from July 1) / $785 (if starts later than July 1). 1 bedroom&1 bath w/ Den (938sf) $825/$845.  2 bed/2 bath (1145sf) $940/975.  I will call them today to see if they also offer similar promotion (1 month free).  The leasing manager (Jason Yu) knows very well on how working with internation students, and he said you can just send him an email (alexanfarms@riverstoneres.com) to get started.

The floor plan of 2 bed/2bath in both places is well designed for sharing by two roomates (instead of a traditional master bedroom plus a small bedroom layout, which is better for a family w/ a kid): two similar sized rooms far from each other, and two fairly big closets (one is slightly bigger than the other). 

The amenities are also impressive.  Nice pool, clubhouse, excersie room, etc.  Well maitained landscapes.  The two are very close to each other and minutes from Fuqua (assuming the traffic on 15/501 is not bad during rush hours).  In my opinion,  it is a little bit harder to get on the freeway (15/501) from Alexan Place, especially if you want to go to Chapel Hill direction.  It seems Alexan Place is all apt complex, while Alexan Farm has a mix of cottages/townhomes/apts.  For a family (especially w/ a kid), Alexan Farm may be a better choice because of its lower density.

Hey, Thanks a lot. I am working in a biotech company now and wanna expand my career in this industry by pursueing HSM. So I guess I might be considered someone who has a bit industry background.

another question: If I go there on 5/21, Am I able to find a student to talk to individually?

eutopia

As far as I know, some of second year students might be here (including myself) but we might be traveling around also by then. If you are surely coming no matter what, let us know in our message box so that we can give you contact number.

今年有dukee来medtronic吗？做那方面的？很高兴听到duke在healthcare的联系这么好。

eutopia

今年毕业的中国人有两个在Health Care做Finance Manager (J&J and Eli Lily Rotation program),还有一个在美国Philips Medical Device, 没有人去Medtronic, 老外有。因为Duke的医学院在美国是排前三的，所以这个HSM和业界联系很多。

duke的Health sector management方向的 MBA，听说是最好的。
