"My collaboration at the Global Master in Marketing has been rewarding at many levels. We deal with state-of-the-art themes in a forward-thinking learning environment and enjoy the best possible conditions in terms of the space and technology at our service. Instead of “multitasking” along the semester, we focus in-depth on specific subjects, which has proven to be a highly efficient and effective learning strategy (exactly as it works in time management!) The students bring in a diversity of lived and professional experiences into the mix. All of this has boosted motivation, curiosity, and knowledge exchange. The GMM is not only about getting prepared for what their professional future may bring, but also about creating that future."
"While being a part of the global marketing master’s program I started to think differently, and I do feel that my mind is now global oriented. This was accomplished by the design of the classes to push the boundaries of traditional marketing approaches and by the engagement in different challenges proposed by teachers. Actually, I am truly impressed by the quality of the lecturers and the number of successful professionals invited to the classes. All in all, this master's has provided me with new perspectives, opportunities, and the skills to support the upcoming challenges in pursuing success in international markets."
