The Jindal School of Management is a perfect place to kick start your career to the rite direction with full speed. While you get used to the JSOM, you slowly get addicted to it. Once you enter the building from the main entrance the aroma of Starbucks mesmerizes your mood and changes it to a happy mood irrespective of what ever mood you were into earlier. The trio statue in the main lobby gives you a feeling of being together, you are not alone. As you walk through the advising office and the ally beautifully decorated with the notice boards, so informative and a ton of activities to do. The different Clubs in JSOM encourage you to do always something more, they help you stand out. Moving towards the even more NEW JSOM II, u just need to follow the aroma of Json Deli's, the labs, the newer classrooms, all the faculty makes a perfect package, I say to my self, I am in the rite place for a bright future. :) and then you have the CMC to take care of the rest :D. All over its super experience till date, also the name Jindal gives a feeling of you being in a home away from...

However, I look back with extremely fond memories of tackling challenges with a team, which has honestly been one of the most useful skills I have ever learned.
So the JSOM taught me useless things but in a REALLY good way.
The only think I would say to the directors of the JSOM is to update your marketing material to 2018. Feels like they're living in the 90's, and the digital marketing course is no exception.
I understand the need to teach on the "high level" and the "idea behind it" but at some point there is a big disconnect with what is being taught in this school and what is actually happening in real marketing jobs.
No more case studies from 5-10 year old campaigns. No one cares. You need to dig into the methods that are being used now in real companies filled with professionals and brilliant minds, perhaps even, hire one or two of those...
Ā Ā Ā Read more3 stars because Iām trying to be fair, Iād say that JSOM as a whole does want to help you on your journey and specific staff members will go above and beyond for you. However, that ends at specific staff members. Iāve been attending ut dallas for four years and have had countless bad experiences with Undergraduate and advisors and the people at the desk. Iāve been misinformed, sent in the wrong direction, disrespected, and hung up on on as many occasions as I had good experiences. Thereās not a clear direction to contacting supervisors or expecting any accountability either. I really hope that jsom steps it up, an advisor can really make or break a college experience especially when weāre talking about a freshmen...
