Student experiences

"I liked this course because it taught me things that are useful and practical. Instead of just telling us the theoretical basics, the teachers also stressed the application of knowledge, like Bizcafe and stock picking. It made me feel like I had already entered my career."
"This class was challenging, but also interesting and exciting all at the same time. Anyone who has an interest in economics or business should definitely take it. It helped propel me to find my passion in economics."
