I had a wonderful time last year at ISM. I finished my coursework in the first quarter of 2017 and started working on my dissertation proposal. Overall, working on my proposal has been an exciting academic venture.

Because of my hectic work schedule, I ended up having to take a break from my program last quarter. The flexibility at ISM helped as I was able to manage things around my work schedule.  

This year, I am hoping to finish my doctorate degree under the supervision of the director of academic affairs and other faculty. I strongly recommend ISM to prospective students, especially the ones who are currently working and looking for an opportunity to quench their thirst of knowledge.
