I feel that I am in the right place
Yacine Samb, Finland
For me, the field of business was an obvious path to take. Because of my culturally diverse background and international career plans, International Business seemed to be the best choice for me. As my studies have progressed, the feeling of being in the right place has grown even stronger.
The good image and location of the school had an influence on my decision, but the most important factor for me for choosing TAMK was the multi-cultural learning environment and the English-language teaching.
Diverse teaching methods at TAMK support students’ creative and innovative thinking, which certainly benefits you in the future. I also like the combination of theory and practice in my studies. I think that studies at TAMK really prepare students for the changing, competitive and international working life.
You should participate in various projects, seminars and organising them – after all, you’ll have to do that in the working life. The multi-cultural learning environment ensures that global networking can begin from your own classmates.
The education has given me a good overview on international trade. The degree programme also has many opportunities for personal planning. You can choose the subjects that interest you the most. I have studied marketing and strategies, but I’m also very interested in national economy.
Luckily, I got a fabulous permanent working place in an advertising and production agency already before my graduation. So, my next goal is to study towards an MBA degree after graduating from my BBA studies, so that I can contribute to the success of my working place even better.
