Babson College’s Master of Science graduates have a reputation for excellence, seen not only in their hard work in the classroom, on their ventures, and in their real-world impact, but also in their outstanding career outcomes. 

The Class of 2025 is no different. In spite of a challenging job market, the most recent MS graduates demonstrate the value of an entrepreneurial mindset, the importance of hands-on experience, and the power of the Babson network.  

In 2025, over 93% of all graduates seeking employment across Babson’s Master of Science in Management in Entrepreneurial Leadership (95%), Master of Science in Finance (93%), and Master of Science in Business Analytics (93%) accepted job offers within six months of graduation.

“Our specialty master’s students executed their job searches with persistence and intentionality,” said Jessica Chance, director of Babson’s Graduate Center for Career Development. “By taking their specific skills and attributes and matching them with the needs of each company, they’ve approached each role as an opportunity to shine.”  

Employers such as Alfonso Hernandez MBA’12, vice president and senior client partner at Kyndryl, frequently seek out Babson graduates to fill in-demand rolls within their organizations. 

“I can trust them to look at the business holistically, identify issues methodically, and then work pragmatically and creatively to implement solutions that drive real business value as soon as possible,” Hernandez said. 

This year, specialized master’s graduates found roles at companies such as Fidelity Investments, Amazon, Goldman Sachs, and Wayfair, where they are well positioned to make an impact and grow their careers as analysts, strategists, consultants, and more.  

Babson’s MS graduates are well equipped to navigate complex business challenges in organizations both large and small. With entrepreneurial leadership skills woven into every course, MS graduates build upon their classroom learning with real-world, problem-solving opportunities, such as the MSBA Consulting Field Project, the Babson College Fund, action-based learning projects, and countless other opportunities available to all Babson grad students through the eight centers and institutes of the Arthur M. Blank School for Entrepreneurial Leadership, as well as the Stephen D. Cutler Center for Investments and Finance, and the Weissman Foundry
