I finished my Bachelor's studies in Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, Moscow. From the very beginning of my university life, I knew that I wanted to go studying abroad for my Master's degree and I knew that it was going to be Austria.

Why have I chosen CUAS? Just because of my friend's recommendation. I was told the program was really interesting and the area was beautiful. I did not know too much about the university, about Villach, about the life there. That just made me more curious to try a new challenge. I applied and was accepted! 

Once I got deeper into the program of International Business Management, I was very impressed. Practice-oriented classes, which give the chance to apply what you have just learnt; an international group ― students from all parts of the world with different studying backgrounds, different experiences, different cultures; guest lecturers, telling about their work experience and how to achieve great results in your life; friendly professors, who are happy to answer all your questions if you could not understand something or just want to clarify any points; group excursions during each semester to other countries, where you visit international companies. 

Moreover, Villach is an awesome city! The truly amazing landscape indeed helps you to fully enjoy studying at CUAS! I would 100% recommend IBM program for studying!
