Rudy’s first manager in his professional career pushed him to explore his MIT Master’s, having gone through a program with MIT Sloan School 40 years prior and reflecting on its transformational experience that broadened his perspective. With this guidance, Rudy started the Supply Chain Management MicroMasters program before leaning further in and applying to the complete 10-month program. For Rudy, the SCM program opened doors for him to pursue new career opportunities in new fields—a pivot he was excited to explore.

As a current student in the SCMb program, I wanted to write an update on Ge’s 2019 post on housing. Her blog entry was incredibly useful for me personally in understanding the housing landscape.
