Testimonials

Hasan Yacoub - Syria, Class of 2011
"I like the way of teaching with the practical examples and case studies which perfectly translates the “Applied Sciences” term. In addition to the international environment inside the class with colleagues from many different countries sharing a vast variety of perspectives and experiences."

Olga Buynova - Ukraine, Class of 2010
"The most valuable knowledge I obtain from this program is information about worldwide companies, usually well-known to me, the way how they are operating now and how they have achieved such success. Also important is the openness of our teachers in the way that they are sharing their own experiences in our field of study.”

Cornelia Timko - Austria, Class of 2010
"For me the most important issue of IBM is that we are a really small group, just about 15 people and we are all from different parts of the world and with different background. Therefore we can actually learn from each other a lot – like some extra lectures. Moreover I found courses really interesting and what is also big plus of the IBM is that we have evening scheduled classes so during the day I can still work."

Nuno Castela - Portugal, Class of 2010
"At CUAS we have a completely international environment. People from many different countries such as China, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Colombia, Brazil etc. study International Business Management and in classes we can really feel this cultural exchange. This and the structure of the programme itself makes me really enjoy the classes.”

Zhu Jian - China, Class of 2010
"CUAS is completely different to my previous university. Here the study materials and knowledge is offered from many different sources; teachers, field experts, other international students etc. It is so easy to communicate with teachers, to give your own suggestions and to cooperate with classmates.”

Irene Müller - Austria, Class of 2010
"At CUAS my favourite four things are the mixture of different nationalities, the variety of offered languages, the general schedule of the course so I can work during my studies and most important – the specialization of parts of the program on Southeast and Central Europe. When I searched for programs on other university homepages this was the only program with a specialization like this.”

Mark Daniel - Austria, Class of 2010
"I like to attend the IBM program at CUAS because it has good quality of lectures. I really like the idea of an internationally focused study program and to study with so many international colleagues definitely contributes to the quality of final diploma."

Pierre Bechler - Germany, Class of 2009
"For me to study International Business Management was a quite challenging experience, because I did my bachelor in engineering so I have a technical background. In the program I saw the possibility to learn many new things and now that I am nearly finished I can confirm that I really learned a lot."

Iryna Lomachuk - Ukraine, Class of 2009
"I think the most positive factors of the IBM program are that a lot of company representatives come to our university and tell us about their personal experiences what makes classes really practically oriented. We get to know the company representatives and in the future we have more chances to apply for a job in these companies.”

Elina Bakhtieva - Russia, Class of 2009
"Two things I like the most are the relationship between teachers and students, and the variety of companies coming to classes. They share their personal experiences with us and we get an inside look of the businesses.”
