"What the Global BBA gave me most was the opportunity to build a lifestyle that truly suited me. I gained real independence in managing my schedule, moving away from an environment where every day was planned for me, without ever compromising my academic performance.

During my exchange semester in Berlin, I graduated at the top of my class, making it a year filled with unforgettable experiences and meaningful connections. The Global BBA also allowed me to balance my coursework, social life, and dozens of hours of athletic training each week. Beyond the classroom, the mix of students across cohorts and the many student organizations create a close-knit, supportive campus community. It's an environment where genuine friendships are formed, many of which I still cherish today.

Another major strength of the program, in my opinion, is its hands-on approach. Many of the professors are industry professionals who bring real-world experience into the classroom, rather than focusing solely on theory. The e-commerce specialization I chose gave me practical tools and methods that I now use every day during my six-month internship at Nestlé.

Studying in English and regularly presenting in front of an audience also gave me the confidence and communication skills I needed to thrive in a professional environment. I rely on those skills every day. Whether I'm speaking with international colleagues, participating in meetings, or taking business calls, I feel confident, credible, and completely at ease.

More than anything, the Global BBA gave me the confidence to grow and succeed."
