"Graduating from the Merchandising Program at The Florida State University has not only prepared me to be a young professional in the retail industry, it has created a foundation of  knowledge and skills necessary to become a SUCCESSFUL young professional. The curriculum and internship block allowed me to quickly adapt to my new environment and gave me the discipline I needed to perform effectively. I truly treasured my time in the program and am thankful I made the right choice in my education!"

"Being a part of the RMPD program at FSU was a life changing experience for me.  Not only were the courses relevant and valuable to my career, but the faculty was very supportive and helpful while I was making important career decisions.  I always did and still feel comfortable reaching out to the faculty and staff for advice and feedback.  The program helped me become the retail leader I am today, and gave me the experiences that I needed to be successful.  I wouldn't change a thing about my experience in RMPD!"
