The year was full of challenges, especially as I was doing the two programs simultaneously, which required the development of new skills and challenged me in several areas.

Personally, the most fulfilling achievement of the year was to deliver a market entry strategy for an SME, a presentation that was used at their strategy and investor meetings and shaped the future of the company.

The kind of opportunities CEU provided in terms of job placements right after graduation were far beyond what I could have hoped for.

I chose the MS in Finance at CEU because I was looking for a university that could provide a solid knowledge of both finance and data analytics.

CEU's open, friendly and welcoming atmosphere was certainly of great support. I felt home quickly in this multicultural environment.

Working with such professionally and internationally diverse classmates has boosted my thinking process from various perspectives.

For me, it was much more than just taking courses. The whole academic experience was amazing, but one thing I would highlight is how incredible the community is.
