The Pivot: from STEM to MBA

​Saturday, 27th September | 1:30 PM – 3:00 PM EDT | 10:30 PM – 12:00 AM PKT

​At DreamBridge.ai, we know many students with technical and engineering backgrounds often think about pivoting into business, whether it’s for leadership, strategy, or long-term career growth. But the big questions remain: How do you make that switch? What does an MBA really require? And how do you tell your story effectively?

​Join Saad Idrees, Business Strategy Manager at The AES Corporation, MBA Candidate at the University of Rochester – Simon Business School, and former Senior Operations Engineer at Weatherford, as he shares his journey of moving from a STEM-heavy career into an MBA and strategy-focused path.

​From navigating the application process and identifying clear academic and career goals to leveraging prior experience for a strong pivot story, Saad will break down the essential lessons STEM-background students need to hear.

​This session is ideal for anyone curious about switching fields, pursuing an MBA in the U.S., or translating a technical profile into a management and strategy-driven career.

​The webinar will be followed by a Q&A round where participants will have the chance to ask Saad personalized questions.
