MBA Alumni Advisory Council

Specifically, MAAC members have the following responsibilities:
- Advise Georgetown McDonough’s dean and senior associate dean for MBA Programs on MBA curricular, co-curricular, and alumni programs;
- Partner with the school’s Office of Alumni Relations to increase the active engagement of alumni in all aspects of the school’s goals and activities; and
- Promote broader alumni engagement in admissions and career services activities that are critical to the success of the school.
