“At IFMC you have the opportunity to try many aspects of business life. My first internship was at Microsoft. Here I learned what corporate life is like, how to work in teams and of course about the IT sector. For my second internship, I deliberately chose a very small company, so that I could feel the difference. I’m now at a consultancy company for mergers and acquisitions. Coincidentally, they aim for clients in the IT sector, so my experience at Microsoft helps a lot.”

“I had to give up my dream of becoming a health care professional due to back problems, but I still wanted to work in the medical field. I had the idea of starting my own medical business. IFMC seemed like the right programme, although it was going to be tough: I hadn’t touched a book about economics in years! The programme is indeed challenging, but the teachers are very experienced at transferring their knowledge. I feel very prepared for the future!”

“What I like most about this programme, is that I can combine my interest in economics with my own creativity. Finding solutions to complex questions, analysing problems and thinking outside the box is something I’ve applied during my favourite course so far: external reporting. I also like the great opportunities for networking during extracurricular activities. As a board member of the student association, Enactus, I get to meet interesting people in high places.”
