Great possi­bil­i­ties for exchange studies and internships

Andre Lehto Brito
Degree Programme in Indus­trial Management

I was quite excited to start my studies at Karelia UAS since it has been quite a while since I’ve been study­ing due to my conscrip­tion. Even though we haven’t actu­ally started on campus yet due to COVID-19 concerns, the teach­ers have done a wonder­ful job with our remote lessons/lectures, assist­ing us in the small­est matters of life and studies. 

I was quite excited to start my studies at Karelia UAS since it has been quite a while since I’ve been study­ing due to my conscrip­tion. Even though we haven’t actu­ally started on campus yet due to COVID-19 concerns, the teach­ers have done a wonder­ful job with our remote lessons/lectures, assist­ing us in the small­est matters of life and studies. They have been very under­stand­ing with the issues that remote study­ing has brought to us students.

I’m very much looking forward to meeting my teach­ers and class­mates once the quar­an­tine lifts and our student life normal­izes. I’m also plan­ning to benefit as much as I can from the inter­na­tional focus of my study programme and get to know people from all over the world. I am improv­ing my language skills all the time and plan to spend some semes­ters as an exchange student as we have great possi­bil­i­ties for this. I dream to work in another country for some years after I’ve grad­u­ated, just in the hopes of it being a great oppor­tu­nity to learn and expe­ri­ence the world. The possi­bil­i­ties I get from the Indus­trial Manag­ment program­mme are great for this.

I’ve really enjoyed my first semes­ter even though the remote lectures haven’t been ideal. The teach­ers here are skilled and really care about what they do. They share and supple­ment our lessons with their great expe­ri­ence. It’s has helped me a lot to get to know my teach­ers. My goal is to grad­u­ate in 3.5 years, but if I get oppor­tu­ni­ties like intern­ship abroad I won’t hesi­tate to stay longer.

If you are inter­ested in a díverse and an inter­na­tional study envi­ron­ment, then I can whole­heart­edly recom­mend Karelia UAS and Degree Programme in Indus­trial Management.
