Study program: Management, Communication & IT (Bachelor)

When I look back at my time at MCI...

...it was definitely challenging (which I like and need also) and being taught so many subjects at once was not easy but it was all worth it and part of my journey. Plus I made some of my best friends to this day alongside the way.

How did your studies prepare you for your current job?

I decided to study Management, Communication and IT as I come from an economical background with our family business and although I had always been a creative being I thought it’d be a good idea to establish a solid basis and knowledge in this field. I am able to understand economics and the way businesses run and flourish. The knowledge I gained at MCI has always been helpful whether I was working for businesses or freelance. The course I completed was especially unique as it had a fast turn around from practical industry insights to education and teaching. A lot of relevant and insightful lectures delivered from unique and successful practitioners made it interesting and worthwhile.
