Why Bauer? Having completed my MBA from UH in 2020, I was aware of the exceptional quality of a Bauer education.

Most of all, Bauer has a sense of family, and it is evident that the faculty and staff genuinely want you to succeed.

Why Bauer? Bauer's MS SCM program was a perfect fit for my schedule. Bauer offered in person classes in the evening, which allowed me to have the classroom experience I was looking for in a graduate program. Many other programs in the Houston area are online or hybrid, which may work better for others, but I prefer being in a classroom with peers and professors. Bauer also has a world class faculty with both professional and academic success. Houston is the center for many supply chains and many difference industries, so choosing to pursue a graduate degree in Supply Chain Management in Houston was a no brainer!
