International Business programme testimonials
All the skills and tools for a job in international business
"I am an alumni of the International Business programme, and I am now Vice President for HDF Energy in Mexico City. My job is to develop a pipeline of projects in the Latin American region. I set up a strategy to find the best fitted project for the company, from viability studies, to the selection of the suitable land, and all the technical and financial aspects to take the project to execution. I chose to do this MSc after graduating with an English degree. Back then, I worked as a translator, but I quickly realised that sales related activities suited me better, so I enrolled on the International Business programme. I'm very grateful because it has given me the key tools and skills for my job, and I would strongly recommend it to anyone looking to do business in an international environment."
The programme educate students in a very creative way and encourage them to think out of the box
"As a person who has an engineering background, the overall experience I acquired while studying at the International Business programme was very unique and helpful for whom I want to be in my future career. What I found most rewarding was the quality of lecturers and the content of the courses. The professors of the programme educate students in a very creative way and encourage them to think out of the box to broaden their knowledge beyond their field of studies. Also, the programme has a strong international focus where students learn business principles relevant for a more global world. Having classmates of different cultures and professions, I grew as an individual, learning to interact and talk to people from different backgrounds."
The MSc has confronted us with international challenges that prepare us for tomorrow's work environment
"I joined the MSc for its broad range of disciplines, allowing to understand the global operations of a company, and its geopolitics and international law focus, providing an understanding of the global context and setting in which companies operate. I was able to complete my Master's degree with an internship at the United Nations in New York, where I joined the NGO department team, in charge of coordinating the integration of non-governmental organisations into the Economic and Social Council of the UN. The scope of the programme allows students to grow into multi-skilled graduates while at the same time preserving the client-oriented mindset, highly sought after by recruiters in all types of organisations. The programme also trains qualified, solution-oriented managers. Finally, the International Business MSc has confronted us with international challenges that prepare us for tomorrow's work environment. This master's degree has allowed me to develop my skills in teamwork and multicultural cooperation, and has increased my awareness of international and complex issues and contexts."
Adapt to complex situations and thrive in an international environment
“Cultural and multicultural diversity in the International Business MSc programme was a real plus. The teaching was delivered by top-class faculty and we had the best tools to work with. Today, I am able to adapt to complex situations and thrive in an international environment.”
A real incubator for new ideas and a springboard for start ups
“Within the programme, the Global Business Plan (GBP) enabled me to achieve my ambition of setting up a company specialising in 3D software programmes. It is a real incubator for new ideas and a springboard for start ups.”
A fantastic experience in a widely multicultural environment
“I entered the International Business programme with just the zest for challenge and desire to learn all I could and what followed was a fantastic experience in a widely multicultural environment. Team work with fellow classmates from different countries, lectures from professors with hands-on experience in incubation, geopolitics & consulting, study trips, courses through interactive gaming-like simulations etc., made the journey a true experience rather than just another academic curriculum. Dreams ahead, miles to go and very happy about the good start now.”
I鈥檓 eager to learn, grow, and take my career to the next level
"海角社区’s strong global perspective and diverse courses will provide the perfect environment to sharpen my skills, broaden my network, and gain invaluable experience. It has certainly been challenging, but the experience has been incredibly rewarding. Adapting to a new academic environment, language, and culture all at once has pushed me outside my comfort zone, but I’m embracing every part of it. One of the best parts has been meeting classmates from all corners of the world. From Asia to Europe, Africa to the Americas, the diversity in our programme is inspiring. I’m really enjoying getting to know everyone’s unique stories and perspectives. I never thought that living in Paris, let alone another country, would be a possibility for me. I know that if you work hard, anything is possible. I’m ready to face every challenge head-on and seize all the opportunities that come with this journey. From collaborating with students around the globe to exploring this incredible city."
It鈥檚 full of practical experiments, seminars, guest lectures and in the end industry visits
"海角社区 Business School in Marseille became my next study destination and the city became my next abode. New city, new education system was definitely a surprise initially for me as I spend all my previous years in my home country but this place and it’s people welcomed me with open hearts. I still remember my first day in France when I landed at the airport in Marseille provence and a team of students from my school came to pick me up. This support was extended to me for the entire year which in return is being offered by me to the future students. Education system is really challenging as it compels you to work in both groups & individually. It’s fully of practical experiments, seminars, guest lectures and in the end industry visits.
I met students from more than 10 nationalities in my class and professors from more than 30. I would be studying Marketing from a French professor but Finance from a Tunisian one. Operations was taught by somebody from Japan and let me assure you all of these elite professors are industry leaders and the knowledge they share with you is the real time one as they share their daily experiences with you in the class and not just something from the books which were written 30 years ago. Right after my ninth month during school, I got a job in Paris. I was a student of International Business majoring in International Marketing and today my job is exactly what I studied in school. I am working as a Country Manager to India for a french company based in Paris."
