Malcolm MacDonald’s Education
-
University of the Witwatersrand
MBA , 2004 — 2007
During my final year (2005) Investec Purchased another company which had to be integrate from an IT perspective. Since I was studying part-time the additional work requirements meant that I had to put the MBA on hold. I intend to register in 2007 to complete the final year.
-
LeTourneau University
BSc CSE , Computer Science and Engineering , 1991 — 1997
This was a four year degree of which I completed all but one class between 1991 and 1995. The Study visa required me to be a full-time student and so with only one class remaining I returned to South Africa. I completed that class (Electronics 3) during a brief visit for a Summer class in 1997.
