This programme provides essential business knowledge. Two semesters of study will be spent working in companies, learning about the workings of contemporary businesses and strengthening your competencies as a future professional.

The internships included in the curriculum have provided invaluable experience and helped me to succeed in the job market. One of the biggest challenges was time management, but in the long term it has given me new competencies, as I have learnt to organise my time efficiently and prioritise.
