My story at the Faculty of Economics and Business, KU Leuven

“Towards the end of my bachelor’s degree in chemical and biological engineering, I knew that I wanted to complement it with a business and management-oriented master’s degree to gain comprehensive knowledge of how to be a good manager in a dynamic and international business environment. I am very glad that I continued my studies at KU Leuven because it provided me with exactly what I was looking for: an interactive education in a wide range of subjects related to international business and hands-on experience through internship opportunities. Thanks to the broad foundation of the programme, including courses such as marketing, accounting, finance, HR and management, it became much clearer what I wanted to do with my career.”

“The curriculum is appealing since it offers the opportunity to grasp a thorough understanding of business economics and management to students from totally different fields and without an economic background. I am also happy with the programme’s truly international environment. I got to meet people from all over the world, which I appreciated very much. I have learned about many cultures and gained valuable friendships. I realized that it is not only about the programme but also about Brussels. As the centre of Europe, it opens doors to many international and amazing experiences.”

“Although going to another country and a new school is challenging, I would not want to have missed the experience. As an organization KU Leuven does whatever it can to ensure people have a good time here. I would also be more than happy to help and guide students throughout their journey.”
