International Business - Central European Business Realities

If you consider to apply for the IB program at VSE then stop considering and just do it. You will definitely not regret it. I decided to study this program mainly due to the strong international focus of the studies and the double degree possibility (option to spend one year abroad at a partner university and to receive a Master's Degree from it). What I appreciated the most was that there was only around 40 other students (from all around the world) which meant the classes in general were more personal and interactive. You study a regular scope of subjects you would expect from an international study program, nevertheless the smaller group of students made the classes more interesting and I think that both the teachers and students were therefore really engaged in the whole study process. To summarize it: I had a great time studying subjects which I never expected to enjoy, learn a lot (hopefully), met and became friends with people from places all around the world and got headhunted by a german automotive company prior to finishing my studies. On the other side, prepare to spend a lot of your free time studying as the program is definitely challenging and you will not get the degree for free.

I came to Prague with only a suitcase back in 2015 and now I have a great degree, a great job at a very prestigious company, a flat, love and a great new life. The study program I was enrolled to provide a top-notch education as well as allowing students to be able to work while studying. Thanks to this great balance, all the alumni including myself were able to find jobs in multinational companies. Most importantly, the degree I received provided me access to opportunities as equal to a citizen of this country. I never felt I did not have the same chances as the others. Since I came to Prague, I keep suggesting my study program and my university to my friends and sometimes even to people that contact me online looking for studying abroad.
