“The master’s program has been an exciting journey, a window with a clear view into the world of work. It offers the opportunity to put into practice what I learned in the classes, allowing me to develop a clear idea of how the field of expertise works. Most importantly, I realized concretely where to direct my working career, to the point that I agreed to move to another region to do the internship that the Master’s program provides. As an investment I recommend it, not only for the curriculum, but especially for the awareness and tools it leaves in each student. Today I work in a world-renowned company, and the Master’s program has been important in moving me through a complex work environment.”

“After completing my degree in humanities, I enrolled in the Master’s program for two reasons: to orient my career in the area of sustainability and corporate social responsibility and to acquire practical skills that would move me away from the academic world. The BBS master’s program, thanks to its practical approach, not only trained me on the major sustainability challenges that companies face, but also provided me with the soft and hard skills needed to approach the corporate world. Thanks to the skills I acquired in the master’s program, I started my career in a multinational tech company in Berlin, now holding the position of Sustainability Manager in Zalando”
