Perceptions of Dallas and North Texas are shaped by iconic symbols – from cheerleaders and cowboys to barbecue and oil wells. In reality, the Dallas region benefits from a thriving, diverse economy fueled by a range of companies, many of them transplanted from other parts of the country. As a result, the area offers an exceptional quality of life, affordability and ample opportunities to achieve dreams. The SMU Cox School of Business in Dallas helps to drive the prosperity of our region – from talent development and placement, program innovation and a network that spans the world. Join the SMU Cox School of Business in its new podcast, “Forging the Future of Business Education,” created in partnership with the Dallas Business Journal, as its leaders debunk misconceptions about Dallas, North Texas and business schools, and unveil the secrets that make the community a fantastic place to live, learn and build a career. New episodes will drop (XYZ cadence). Listen to new episodes and subscribe to the podcast at Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
