Mauricio Raigosa (MBA 2008) - Mexico

HEC has opened my mind to new ideas 

Raigosa-MauricioChoosing an MBA was not an easy decision for me. I was not only looking at rankings, but at the experience as a whole, since my plan has always been to start up my own company, as soon as I finish my studies. In other words, I was not looking to satisfy a specific company or person, but I was looking after myself. When I visited the campus, I felt a great vibe...the staff was friendly, the campus was in a beautiful forest with great landscapes, the classrooms were modern and fully-equipped, and I felt a lot of energy around. Now, as part of the HEC MBA program, I can confirm that the vibe is real. Students at HEC are bright and hardworking, but they never lose the fun and friendly spirit. Everyone helps everyone, and there is barely a competitive environment. We work as a team, rather than as individuals, to overcome the challenges of the outside world.

HEC has helped me crack my stereotypes. It's amazing to have so many nationalities together in a room, exchanging personal experiences and points of view. It's always fun to gather and talk about our differences and similarities, and learn not just academically but personally.

I also enjoy having time to party around. There is always time to have a drink or a coffee after classes, seminars, homework, or whatever the day-to-day activities demand. HEC is a place to make friends, grow together with them, study hard, and learn from the actual global panorama, in order to open your mind to new ideas.
