Prague University of Economics and Business

I graduated from the university and then left for business. After a year I came back as a Ph.D. student. I had the opportunity to meet inspiring people and still have the chance to work with young and talented students. It is great to see them grow.

When I was looking for my masters I asked myself the question, what did I enjoy most while doing my bachelor’s degree and why? That’s when it struck me, that I enjoyed the most personal and professional growth during my exchange semester. During my bachelor's, I was lucky enough to spend six months abroad and although it was the scariest thing I had ever done. It also was the time during which I made beautiful friendships and got to know myself a lot better. I noticed that putting myself outside of my comfort zone had brought me a lot of benefits and I wanted to extend this experience by also choosing to do my masters abroad.

Ever since I was a teenager I decided that I wanted to experience living in as many countries as possible during my youth. To study abroad is a great opportunity to fulfill that goal. I studied my bachelors in Sweden and did a bachelors exchange in Canada. When it was time to apply for masters I saw the possibility to do that abroad. I also saw the possibility of picking a home university abroad and then being able to go on a master’s exchange to yet another country. This is also what I ended up doing. I studied my 2 year masters at the University of Economics in Prague and I spent one of those semesters on a masters Erasmus program in Italy. I could not be happier with my decision. It has given me so many new experiences, friends and memories. My expectations were definitely fulfilled.
