Professor and teaching style

Although I earned my bachelor degree at the University of York in UK, it was quite theoretical. I really started to bridge the learning gap between theory and practice only when I started to pursue my master degree in Business Analytics and Data Science at EU Business School in Barcelona. What stands out most in my current program is the university’s strong emphasis on practical experience. Our professors are not only scholars but also are successful business managers and data experts, as they are either the owners of successful organizations or individuals who took on top management roles in large corporations. Their teachings are more than just the syllabus in, they also provide personal experience in the area of niche markets, provide best practices in an industry, and always provoke our thinking with regard to the existing trends in higher education, business strategy, and innovation.

Blend of business and creativity

Amazing program, it provides the perfect blend and opportunity to learn skills and also explore your creativity. Most professors are very experienced and well known within their field of expertise. Some are outstanding and provide you with great knowledge. There is a lot of emphases given to practical learning and group projects. WHU staff, as well as students, were good fun.
