ESCE experience
I chose ESCE for a reason, for its well-known reputation, and its Varity of programs for international student . Life on campus was full of activities , the school offer a zein zone and a fun zone are where I used to go between classes and breaks to chill and have fun a little , because after all we need a break, the program was really interesting and fast . I got the chance to meet wonderful doctors from all around the world
An Impeccable Group of Staff
In an MSc fast track program, I had the privilege of spending time a large and intensive period with each educator, including supporting staff. From core marketing classes to general soft skill and one on one meetings, a large sum went above and beyond what was expected. From moral, educational, in some cases emotional support, the staff laid down a foundation for me to grow and reach my truest potential. In their own personal capacities, each staff took a unique approach to part with their knowledge, wisdom, support and experience. From an educational perspective, the educators sparked curiosity, critical and analytical thinking in me, allowing me to look at the world of business, advertising and marketing in a new light. While some information may have come across as �far fetched� or �hard to believe� it showcased that the program wasn�t merely looking to scratch the surface, but project the future, years in advance. With majority of the courses I take, I found my own passion for the content, mounding it in a way that I could use, apply and consider in my professional career. However, at the core of my memorable experience was the personal contact I had with a large majority ESCE professional staff. They made me feel welcome, accepted, and seen, allowing me to voice my thoughts, my own experience, and knowledge. I believe my masters success would not be possible without the influence of all members at ESCE.
