Student-Staff relationship

As far as universities go I think EU business school comes first in terms of student-staff relationship. Every member of the staff I have encountered has been more than helpful. What i think should improve as even tho its not connected to my previous point is I think the school should have more leniency towards tuition payment specially to international students because we are here despite the challenges of having to find willing banks to exchange local currencies to Euros.

Best MBA to do a triple career change

Being at IESE was one of the best experiences of my life: 1- Professionally: this MBA is one of the best connected schools with top consultancy and banking sectors. for example, the 3 MBBs come to the school to train and interview candidates, ensuring a higher successful rate. It allowed me to jump from a civil engineering position to work for McKinsey. 2- Personal and cultural : amazing transformative 2 years, with people from all over the world (73 nationalities in my class) with great values. Totally worthy it.

Well structured course

Basically, it’s a private university with a good reputation and also the lecturers are well educated and helpful. The course contains 60% of management-related modules and the remaining technical modules. For anyone who is searching for a techno-management course, I would suggest Hochschule Fresenius.
