I am a first year student at Columbia Business School. Prior to CBS, I advised public transportation agencies on strategies to manage and maintain their physical assets, such as the trains, tracks, etc. A major hurdle was that there is such limited funding for public infrastructure and there's many projects to be done to ensure they are maintained in a good state. This funding problem is part of what motivated me to come to Columbia to learn more about business. I'm currently recruiting for municipal or public finance roles. My long term goal is to lead a transportation agency in a major US city.
Greetings, I am Pacifique HAKIZIMANA, an alum of University of Rwanda College of Science and Technology, with a specialization in Information Systems. I have recently completed a research project focused on the transition from traditional paper-based processes to digital systems within university environments. The objective is to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of academic services. The motto guiding this endeavor is "Go green, Go paperless," as we seek to promote a sustainable and eco-friendly approach to education management.
