As an incoming student, what can you expect as you embark on a new journey at the University of Oregon?
Before Your First Term
Excel Foundations Course
Before they begin the program, MSF students build essential Excel skills that support their success throughout the program and beyond. This self-paced, online course taught by Professor Erik Ford takes approximately 25–30 hours to complete. Expect to end the course equipped with practical tools, time-saving shortcuts, and a strong foundation in Excel to help you excel in your coursework and career!
Orientation
MSF orientation is required for all incoming students and is scheduled each September one week before the first day of classes. During orientation, incoming students will build community with their colleagues, faculty, and staff; develop skills in case analysis, leadership, and team dynamics, and more.
