'At the UvA in Carré seminars, top-level corporate speakers give their insights about their organisations, in the most beautiful theatre of Amsterdam'

Jori Trouw (the Netherlands) - Strategy

'The reason I chose the UvA is that it offers a Master's programme which you can totally create yourself. For me this was perfect, as I wanted to learn more about how to manage people, but also create strategies in organisations. What immediately appealed to me was the fact that the Business Administration programme is offering business seminars in Carré, where speaker from top-level businesses give their insights about their organisations, in the most beautiful theatre of Amsterdam.'

'The lectures and workgroups of this Master's are of high quality. I feel engaged with the theories and articles provided by the lecturers. Lecturers teach on a high quality level. They are open to your questions and thoughts. The standards are high, which makes you feel you are really developing yourself, on an educational level but also on a personal level. The programme also offers professional skills lectures, which prepare you for the labour market.'

'I love studying in Amsterdam. The city is diverse and always alive with parties, restaurants and bars. Many big companies are established in the city. I am not sure about what I want to do once I've completed my Master's, as the options are numerous. I am thinking about applying for a traineeship at a company which matches my values. I want to make in impact on people and the world.'
