Case study based learning is one of the things I like most at Lappeenranta University of Technology. This learning method features the combination of theory and practice in the learning process. It prepares you for and gives an image of the world of work. Also, these case studies are carried out in groups, and therefore, at the same time you learn how to work in a team. These skills are vital in the future.

The academic environment in Lappeenranta is very positive.
The professors are very easily approachable, they help you with any problems you have and are also keen to listen to your ideas. 

In my work, I daily keep in touch with clients and other banks from all over the world. My studies gave me confidence and an excellent foundation to build my knowledge in my current professional tasks and in the financing sector in general.

The learning experiences I had at LUT were excellent. The level of both the permanent academic staff and the visiting lecturers is world-class. The real-life relevance of the studies was also high − an issue which is too often disregarded in the academic world. Participating in student activities has also given me vast networks, real-life management experience and the best of friends.

At LUT, you have excellent resources at your reach. This, combined with the endless support of the academic staff and fellow students, creates a perfect academic platform for you to grow your  wings.

The wide-ranging syllabus at the LUT School of Business has truly given me both professional and personal skills of a top level. This has proven to be an invaluable asset during my international career and has given me all of the tools required for progressive career development.
