Congratulations to the newest Robinson College of Business graduates!

The Robinson community recently gathered at Zoo Atlanta to celebrate the accomplishments of students from our cohort-based master's programs. Graduates, faculty, and staff came together for an evening of recognition, connection, and celebration as we honored students from the Master of International Business, Master of Science in Commercial Real Estate, Master of Science in Finance, Master of Science in Information Systems, Master of Science in Marketing, and Master of Science in Supply Chain Management programs.

The evening was filled with inspiring remarks, meaningful conversations, and well-deserved recognition of the hard work, perseverance, and dedication that brought our graduates to this milestone.

Congratulations to the Class of 2026! We are proud to welcome you to our Robinson alumni community and look forward to seeing all that you accomplish in the years ahead.

🎓 Celebrating the final steps of the Master of Science in Marketing (MSMK) journey with an unforgettable experiential learning experience!

As students approached the completion of their program, they put their marketing expertise into action through the Rapid-Fire Innovation Sprint, the signature experiential learning project in Professor Brenda Renee Turner's MK 8620 Product and Brand Management class.

This fast-paced, hands-on challenge gave students the opportunity to apply the skills they developed throughout the MSMK program by creating innovative beverage concepts inspired by emerging brand STILL G.I.N. By Dre and Snoop. Working through the product development process, students leveraged consumer insights, brand strategy, and creative problem-solving to bring their ideas from concept to creation.

A special thank you to Liz Pucci, Global VP of Commercial Marketing, for presenting the brand challenge and providing students with valuable industry perspective. We also appreciate Mike Kostyo, VP at Menu Matters, for sharing the latest food and beverage consumer trends to help guide students’ innovation efforts.

The experience was made possible through the generous support of Monin USA and Owens Mixers, who provided students with a wide range of syrups, sauces, bases, and flavor enhancers to transform their ideas into new product concepts.

Congratulations to our MSMK students on completing this milestone experience as they near graduation! We are excited to celebrate all they have accomplished. 🎉

We were then honored to welcome our keynote speaker, Karen McGrath, Vice President of Human Resources at AssuranceAmerica. Karen shared valuable insights on the evolving hiring landscape, emphasizing agility, emotional intelligence, purpose, and partnership. ✨

The celebration continued with remarks from Senior Associate Dean Brian Jennings, followed by recognition of our STAR Students, honored for attending 10+ Career Advancement Center events and workshops. ⭐🎓 We also celebrated our 2025–2026 Employer Champions, whose continued partnership creates meaningful opportunities for Robinson graduate students. 🏆🤝
