I’m Davide, I’m from Italy, and this is my report as a student of ESE Florence. This is my first year of BSc in Business Administration and I joined the School last September. The setting and environment of the School immediately appealed to me, and I got along well right away with both the professors and the staff. Everyone is always available at any time for any problem or request. Coming from the Italian school system, I immediately noticed the differences in teaching, especially because at ESE you adopt a completely different study method compared to high school. If you’re not used to studying in a foreign language it can be challenging, but with time and commitment you get used to it quickly.
I also experienced something different from my classmates, since within a month after starting classes, I had to stay home for a month due to a knee injury. During that time I still felt closeness and support and received encouragement and well wishes for a speedy recovery from professors and fellow students. On the practical side, a special program was enabled right away to allow me to take classes remotely via streaming.
Another important aspect of this university course, which contributes to its uniqueness, concerns the internship placements, which provide a training period in a company every year. Companies are contacted and selected directly by ESE’s Internship office based also on the chosen course of study, so that the internship experience can be interesting and challenging for your profile and ambitions, as well as educational. In conclusion, I can say that I am fully satisfied with these first months at ESE Florence and it is an experience that I would recommend to anyone who wants to pursue a degree course of high educational value.
