Industrial Advisory Board (IAB)

The MBS Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) is a valuable resource for Rutgers Professional Science Master’s (PSM) program.

Comprised of STEM-based business leaders representing a rich spectrum of industries—including pharmaceutical manufacturing, R&D, product development, media and television, consumer goods, and the energy sector—our members pool their vast knowledge and expertise to help shape curriculum and keep programming and related initiatives cutting-edge, relevant, and impactful, keeping our program ever-current, and enabling us to best assess how we prepare students to meet the ever-changing needs of the 21st-century workforce. 

IAB members engage with students at events including guest lectures, panel presentations, and mixers, where they discuss industry-specific trends, developments, and innovations as well as challenges facing business leaders today.  Additionally, our board members serve as a strong network for both current students and our growing number of alumni. This passion for our program and overall mentorship for success gives our overall program a leading edge.

We are proud that several IAB members are also MBS graduates
