The Jenkins Program aims to bring people of all backgrounds together to grow personally, academically and professionally.
Our Community
Here at Poole College, you will join a community of individuals with whom you’ll form lasting relationships — whether in class, through one of our many extra-curricular activities or at one of our frequent social and professional events.
We consistently hear that our students and their partners develop close, lifelong friendships with classmates, faculty and staff during their time in the program.
“It’s the personal connections I made that far exceeded my expectations of any MBA program.”

Community Standards
At NC State MBA, we purposefully cultivate a close-knit community committed to upholding values of integrity, excellence and professionalism. This strong foundation is designed to support your path toward becoming a thriving business leader. Here are a few of our key principles:
Commitment to Integrity: At Jenkins MBA, we are dedicated to upholding the highest standards of integrity, ethical behavior and leadership in all aspects of our academic and professional journey.
Code of Student Conduct: We expect all members of our community to adhere to the NC State Code of Student Conduct, fostering an environment where the dignity and rights of every member are respected.
Academic Excellence: Academic integrity is at the core of our community. We pledge to neither give nor receive unauthorized aid, ensuring the integrity of our programs.
Classroom and Professional Etiquette: In our classrooms, we prioritize attendance, punctuality and active engagement. We believe that professionalism is crucial, from being well-prepared to respectful device usage.
Teamwork and Communication: Collaboration is key to our learning and professional growth. We emphasize teamwork, conflict resolution and professional communication both in person and online.
Students have the opportunity to join in-person networking and social events with peers across the Jenkins Graduate Programs, enriching their educational experience.

Please give a warm welcome to the newest members of the Full-Time Jenkins MBA program!
The new members of the Wolfpack include 51 students. Four of them are international students and 10 are military-affiliated. 37% have non-business-related majors, and thus are starting a brand new path in our program.

Yesterday, as part of Full-Time MBA orientation, new students heard from a panel of Jenkins MBA alumni who answered questions and shared early career advice.
Some highlights from the panel:
"One thing that will really make a difference in your career is how you make people feel."
"Make sure your skip-level leader (your boss`s boss) knows what you do and the value you bring. They may be making key decisions about your role down the road."
"Get to know the interviewers throughout the job interview process. Show genuine interest in who they are and what they value."
"Learn to communicate complex ideas to leadership quickly, clearly and concisely."
"Learn what other teams across your organization do. When it’s time to collaborate, you’ll be better equipped to speak their language."
Big thanks to the panelists: Jackson Beaufort, Elisabeth Baum, Rylie Newman, Joshua Lissauer and Shaily Shah!
