Hauska tutustua! I come from the United States and am a third-year International Business student. In addition to living in California, I spent my childhood in Peru.
Karelia UAS helped me to reach my dream. I had wanted to move to Finland since I was six years old and was so thrilled when accepted. I had planned my move for years and even started learning Finnish when I was twelve. Now, my dream has come true!
Studying in this university has helped me hone my skills more and more throughout my studies. I have some sales experience and I applied that to my International Business courses. My professors encouraged me to do so continuously. The whole study setting feels very professional as well as when it comes to addressing them. The environment is relaxed and independent as it permits one to complete assignments with preparation and might.
I chose International Business because the business itself can be easily applied anywhere and offers an endless tide of opportunities. This degree programme has courses in sales, logistics, accounting, commerce and more! I have learned of the many facets of a working business as well as its background operations. Group projects fully prepare one for an actual work setting. We even have presentations to pitch our ideas to investors a.k.a. our professors. It’s the most curious thing!
The campus has a pleasant environment for the ideal university student. It has quiet settings devoid of distractions, helpful counseling, and a restaurant offering nutritious affordable meals.
You also have the chance to apply your learned skills to an internship, which grants you experience in a real work environment. I did one last year and felt like a true professional by sitting at a desk with my laptop doing research.
I have lived in Finland for two years. I feel appreciative every day for studying at Karelia UAS and spending my days in a country enriched with commendable intelligence and respect for culture. As a university of applied sciences student, living here has helped me to find myself and mature as an individual. It has shaped me as one devoted to her studies and dedicating my days to doing what I promised when I decided to move 9000 kilometers away.
Joensuu has been a wonderful place to acclimate to Finland. It is small and therefore not so overwhelming. I got used to it pretty fast. The surroundings are calm and pleasantly quiet. You can walk and feel so very free. It is decorated with vast forests and lakes. In every season, they are breathtaking to see.
