"I am an international sales and social media representative for a midwestern company. I chose Osiri University to pursue my MSc in Data and Information Systems because of the experience and sophistication of the professors who embody the Ubuntu philosophy of creating a better world. This is a philosophy I hold close to my heart, and I truly believe that with open-minded collaboration, humanity can achieve great things. The world is headed into a new technological revolution. With the development of AI and easy access to the internet, there is no telling where we will go. Data and information systems would help some stay at the forefront of technology while learning about the ethical implications of this new future, ensuring that I receive a holistic view of the new technological revolution we are entering"

Marisa Dawson

"My name is Marisa Dawson and I chose Osiri University's MBA program for several reasons. Being a mom of two little ones and juggling a career makes it hard to find a great fit for continuing education. When I learned this program was designed with things in mind like juggling a busy schedule (whether it be work or kids), it sounded like a great fit! Another thing that led me to pursue this opportunity was being a former student of Dr. Osiri. He is such a wonderful and talented professor, so I know that any program he backs and puts together will be worthwhile."
