The programme allows students to tailor their degree and the theoretical framework as they desire. I could select the courses that match my field of interest and that I believe prepare me best for my future career. The study gives me a well-defined picture of possibilities that I can pursue when searching for a suitable career. I joined the RISK investment team which helped me to gain more knowledge in investing and to meet new people. It is a great way to employ my theory in practice.
