Business Degrees in Western Europe

EHL is a purely international school where you develop yourself professionally and personally. It gives you all the opportunities to grow. And it is not just studies; there is also a lot of student life where you can join different committees and meet new people. There is a committee for everyone, so you can join one that really speaks to you. The quality of education is amazing, and for me, it has been really great to learn from my teachers, as they all have industry experience and know a lot about it. For me, it has been thI have ever made, and I will recommend everyone who wants to pursue a hospitalitye best decision business career to come here.

I completed the MA in Contemporary Art in London. My time at Sotheby’s gave me both an entry point into and an understanding of the global art world. During my Master’s studies, I not only gained an incredible amount of academic knowledge, but was also introduced to the London art world and began building my career. In my work, I look at artworks all the time, and having the ability to critically assess and understand them is very important. The skill of visual analysis, as well as developing an eye, was a major focus during my studies, and I am glad that the tutors paid so much attention to it. We were constantly looking at different works and were expected to discuss them. We were also encouraged to go to exhibitions. You learn this skill as a student and then continue to refine it during your professional life.

I had been wanting to study art history at Sotheby’s Institute for a long time and had always been drawn to the Institute’s MA Contemporary Art. I eventually started with a short course, which gave me a solid base and the chance to delve into a subject I’d always been passionate about. I instantly loved the Institute’s teaching approach—placing students in front of artworks, encouraging dialogue, and connecting theory with real experience. After my initial course. I truly believe I could not have received a better education. I constantly recommend the program to others! The MA not only provided me with in-depth knowledge of contemporary art, but it also strengthened my critical thinking, offered a clear structure of how the art world functions, and introduced me to the wide range of professional paths within it.

I did the MA Art Business at the London campus because of its course reputation, faculty, and the depth and breadth of the program. I was looking for a course that would give me a broad but thorough introduction to the commercial art world. The MA Art Business program at Sotheby’s Institute inspired me to explore contemporary art, dream big, and nurture my confidence in international cross-cultural networking, which gave me the encouragement to find my path in the art business world. I would recommend this program to those with an interest in working in the commercial art world and collaborating with art industry players or to those who have an interest in collecting art.

My time at Sotheby’s Institute was deeply enriching, and a big part of that was thanks to the incredible professors. Their expertise, support, and ability to connect theory with real-world examples made the learning experience truly engaging and inspiring. I loved how the MA Luxury Business program covered a wide range of luxury sectors—from hospitality and jewelry to fashion and art—and explored the evolving definition of luxury across cultures and time periods. Being in London really enhanced the experience, as the city itself is a global hub for art, fashion, and luxury. I especially appreciated the immersive learning. We had the opportunity to visit incredible places like the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) in London, Rathfinny Wine Estate in Sussex, Van Cleef & Arpels School in Paris, and Mandarin Oriental in Milan. These experiences offered invaluable insight into how luxury is created, curated, and communicated in different contexts. In addition to the site visits, we were also joined by a range of guest speakers from across the luxury sectors, including areas like jewelry and hospitality, who shared valuable insights into their careers, challenges, and lessons learned—adding a real-world dimension that made the learning feel even more relevant and inspiring. I also really enjoyed taking electives from other programs—my course on art forgery, for example, was especially eye-opening and gave me a new lens through which to view authenticity in the luxury space.

Studying at EHL has been a truly life-changing experience. While I expected a strong academic education, what stood out most was the range of opportunities made possible through the school’s global exposure and industry connections. One of the most impactful experiences has been the mobility semester in Singapore. Studying in such a dynamic international environment offered me a brand new perspective, whether it is personally, academically or culturally. This pushed me to develop strong adaptability, independence, and openness to new opportunities and perspectives. Internships in the industry are another key pillar of the EHL experience. Being immersed in professional environments allows you to discover real-life expectations, which encourage the rapid development of responsibility, professionalism, and leadership. A powerful element of EHL lies in its students themselves through meaningful connections and cultural diversity. I am truly grateful for all the opportunities open to us to develop and student initiatives like student ambassador programs, committees and brand exposure.

EHL is a very international campus where all students are very kind and outgoing. The majority of teachers are kind and always available to help students. EHL values are carried throughout the whole campus and is respected daily by students. Student life is very lively and includes many events, both academic and for entertainment. Sometimes certain aspects could be a bit more flexible in terms of rules. However, overall I am proud to be part of the EHL Bachelor program and I'm excited to join the Alumni network.

When I first heard of EHL, I decided to apply to what I believed was a hospitality business school, based on how it was presented across different platforms. I expected to gain networking and career opportunities, hands-on learning through global internships, and a unique blend of hospitality expertise. What I gained, however, was much more. EHL built me, both personally and professionally. The curriculum is designed to allow students to experience continuous growth while constantly encouraging them to step out of their comfort zone. I like to tell others that it is not only an academic journey, but also an opportunity to get to know yourself better, understand the kind of leader you want to become, and define how you can make a meaningful contribution. What I particularly appreciate is that growth doesn’t only happen in the professional world, but also on campus itself, if you are eager to take on new challenges. I had the opportunity to work with the Student Affairs Department on the Singapore campus (one of the best experiences I’ve had, and something I would 100% recommend: be curious and dare to go on exchange!), serve as a Student Ambassador for the school, which allowed me to connect with professionals and fellow students, and take part in a Student Consultancy through one of our student committees. I feel that I still have so much to accomplish at EHL, and I can’t wait to see where this journey will lead me.

My experience at EHL Hospitality Business School has been highly enriching and inspiring. From finance classes to marketing courses, every subject truly feels like a distinct journey, offering its own perspective, challenges, and growth opportunities. The diversity of teaching styles and real-world applications makes learning both engaging and meaningful. Beyond academics, what really sets EHL apart is its strong sense of community. EHL feels like a big family, where students, professors, and staff work together to create a supportive and motivating environment. It is genuinely a pleasant university to study at, both academically and personally. The involvement opportunities are also remarkable. From the numerous committees to the impressive number of events organized throughout the year, there is always something happening that allows students to connect, learn, and develop skills outside the classroom. These experiences make student life dynamic, fulfilling, and memorable. Overall, EHL Hospitality Business School offers much more than an education: it provides a unique journey that combines excellence, community, and personal development.

My experience so far as a second-year student at EHL has been amazing and unforgettable. I decided to continue my studies at EHL after high school because I saw it as a university with immense potential for developing my skills for the future. When I was exploring bachelor’s options, I initially considered business management. However, I realized that simply focusing on business wasn’t enough for me. As someone who thrives on interaction and genuinely enjoys enhancing others’ experiences, I knew I needed more than just business. That’s when I discovered EHL and the Bachelor’s in International Hospitality Management. It perfectly blended the business administration courses I was interested in with the people-oriented approach of hospitality, along with the valuable soft skills it helps develop. One of the key aspects I considered when choosing a university was finding a place whose values aligned with my own and offered the kind of education I was looking for. What truly stood out to me about EHL was its sense of community and family, which is something I greatly value in a university. Moreover, EHL offers incredible opportunities beyond just academics. This includes the internship opportunities integrated into the bachelor’s program, allowing us to work with renowned hotel chains and brands thanks to EHL’s career fairs. Additionally, there are roles as student assistants, involvement in committees, and the student ambassador program, all of which enrich the overall experience. Now talking a bit about my personal journey: during my first internship, I had the incredible opportunity to work at the Four Seasons Hotel Madrid as a Guest Experience Intern. It was an amazing learning experience where I applied my skills in a real-world setting and grew significantly both personally and professionally, which I deeply appreciate. Now that I’m back on campus, I’m actively involved in a committee where I hold the role of marketing and audiovisuals, an area I’m passionate about and eager to develop further. Additionally, I also serve as a student ambassador, which allows me to collaborate with the school and become more engaged within the EHL community. I also have the pleasure of working closely with the Events and Recruitment team at EHL. They gave me the wonderful opportunity to attend two recruitment events, one in Madrid and another in London. At these events, I had the chance to speak with prospective students about my EHL experience, as well as my internship journey, answer their questions, and share insights. I truly enjoy connecting with potential new students and appreciate the chance EHL has given me to participate in these events and share my perspective. Another aspect that stood out to me is the structure of the bachelor’s program, starting with the AP (preparatory year). This hands-on experience is invaluable, especially for someone like me who learns by doing. It’s rare to find such immersive exposure to the hospitality industry, rotating through various hotel departments during the first six months, which then prepares you for the following internship in operations. Finally, as you continue with your studies after the internship, you delve into a variety of subjects, including finance, business, economics, and more. These topics are crucial for developing your skills and preparing you for a successful future in the industry. Another aspect I truly appreciate about EHL is the small class sizes. This allows for personalized teaching, where professors can get to know each student individually and provide tailored support. This environment encourages open communication, making it easy to ask questions and receive detailed explanations.

I’ve been here for a term now and I’ve had such a great time. The classes are small and intimate, and you get hands on experience with teachers who are experts in their field (I am in a class of 4 students), whilst also having 1 hour and 40 minutes of Spanish classes everyday! It’s a great opportunity to learn Spanish whilst also getting a Masters in Business Administration. There are no courses like this!

Honestly, the world-class academic program speaks for itself. What surprised me most about EHL was the student life. I’ve met some of the most interesting people and had experiences I never imagined a university would enable, such as night hikes to see the stars, petting cows in a field, directing a musical, or simply enjoying a glass of Ruinart with friends between classes. There’s a sense of shared adventure here that turns memories into actual “lore.” The opportunities are what set EHL apart. When the Four Seasons C-suite visited, the talk alone was inspiring, but I ended up sitting with them at lunch afterwards, and they welcomed me into the conversation. Moments like that gave me perspectives I wouldn’t have gained if I’d stayed in my comfort zone or gone elsewhere. Those conversations shaped how I approach interviews, how I think about my career, and, honestly, how I present myself as a future professional. I feel more confident because of them. I also work across two departments at the school, and the trust and responsibility I’ve been given this early is something I don’t take lightly. It’s rare to be treated like you have something real to contribute before you’ve even graduated. EHL has been more than an education, it’s been a place that continuously hands me opportunities to grow, and the space to rise to them. I’m grateful.

UNYP is very welcoming and supportive of students; it is not only a safe environment but also a great area to share your ideas and converse on intelectual matters. The homework is vast but informative and all organised to act as a consistent study system for future exams.

My time at the faculty of economics was definitely a good one. After arriving in a new country, I needed some time to warm up but, fortunately, I know some Czechs who kindly included me in the Czech life and culture. Although the level of complexity was not as high as I expected and as I was used to from my Bachelor's, I really appreciate the practical approach during the courses. Working with real-life cases, projects and learn useful management tools really improved my understanding of these topics. Overall, it was a good time and I am thankful for the support from the uni and professors during the courses and administrative obstacles.

Faculty of Economics & Administration, Masaryk University responded to this reviewAugust 18, 2025

Thank you for your kind words, Aaron!

Strolling through Rome, between history and gelato, sunsets by the Tiber, and beauty in the chaos is an unforgettable experience filled with art, food, and everyday warm experiences with Italians. I enjoyed it a lot

I had an amazing time, truly a time in my life I will always cherish. I was able to call a new place home, meet so many new people who I made lifelong friendships with and created memories I will forever remember. I also grew as a person by navigating a new environment completely on my own, finding myself away from environments I am used to and explored new places that taught me so much.

Studying in Barcelona has been an incredible journey of growth and discovery. Leaving Venezuela at 18 was a big challenge, but this city has given me independence, new friendships, and amazing experiences. Adapting to a new culture wasn’t easy at first, but now I love the Mediterranean lifestyle, my studies in international business, and my job as a media manager. From running by the beach to weekend adventures, every day here teaches me something new. Studying abroad is challenging but so worth it—it’s an experience that changes you forever!

I would describe moving to study in Italy, Venice as one of the best decisions of my life. I have been able to meet people from all around the world and to develop myself academically in the best way possible. For someone who is looking for an experience where you will feel like you truly belong in a student community, I would defenitely reccomend Ca' Foscari University.

Disclaimer: no sugar coating, going to tell all good and bad about ECON MUNI. I am a master's level student specializing in business management and have a very brief professional experience in tech sales. I know you all expected to know general information about studying in Czech and Masaryk university but I love to go in details, I mean that's what our professors love: more passion more energy in your reports and presentation :)) . Thanks to this, as a student from Faculty of Economics I know inside out of the subjects I am studying so we can be the best future leaders and managers. I am especially grateful about the courses with seminars/labs to teach us real skills that connect academia and professional journey ahead us in the corporate world. I am talking about my favorite ERP course and university has given us access to dynamics 365 business central by Microsoft yes you heard that right in which you can get hands on experience for Financial management Sales Marketing Supply chain management Project management and a lot more I am talking about just one course and there are large number of courses the faculty offers to us with all the learning materials we need. On top of that, there is no restriction in exploring your interests and pursuing courses at other faculties. All in all, I think Masaryk university is the best place to study and become your best self!

I've finished my Bachelor's degree at Ca' Foscari. It was alright. I would say that it is quite mediocre university, there are definetely worse and better options to explore. I've enjoyed extra-curricular activities. It is not very academically challenging uni, it is quite chill.
