What do you like most in MEI?
The small international group of students represents the perfect condition for an intense cultural exchange. I particularly like the group works in the program as they not only have a practical relevance but also provide a great exercise of how to work in a team composed of people with different cultural backgrounds.
The professors are really experts in their field. Their teaching approach comprises of a combination between theoretical and practical knowledge to prepare you best for your entrepreneurial endeavour.
The program offers the opportunity to meet a lot of people in Luxembourg and create contacts with the mentor companies.
Why did you choose the University of Luxembourg for performing your master studies?
I liked the masters program because it is an intense one-year program in English about entrepreneurship. It is also closely linked to various companies in Luxembourg, providing the opportunity to apply the learned in class in a practical experience during the studies.
Which specialization did you choose? Why?
I chose the ICT track, because I believe it is crucial to know more about Information and communications technology in the times we are living in. A lot of today’s entrepreneurial ideas come from this sector and I wanted to learn more about it and see how the evolvements in this industry could be used in “traditional” businesses.
Which hobbies do you practice in Luxembourg?
Luxembourg is a great place to go hiking or practice any outdoor sports. I like going jogging in Luxembourg’s beautiful parks.
There are various bars and cafes where you can enjoy a glass of wine and meet up with friends.
Will you stay in Luxembourg?
Yes, I believe I will. This small country in the heart of Europe offers a lot of opportunities and there are still a lot of things to be explored in this country. I am sure that soon Luxembourg will become a more exciting place to be.
