Not only did the International Business programme equip me with a concise overview of culture, economics and business, it also gave me the opportunity to travel and build up my own international network.

Daniel, Ghana, Full-time MBA graduate 2011

Before I came to Finland in 2004, I had many different experinces on various kinds of jobs in my home country. I completed my Professional Studies (PD) in International Business Management and Bachelors degree in International Business in Finland in 2004-2007.

I came to study in Oulu because it is an internationally oriented city with lots of business activities. Oulu Business School (OBS) approaches teaching in a practical and theoretical way. As a part of the teaching method OBS encourages students to study independently and to do also group assignment. That is for me the thing that I most cherish in Oulu Business School. I learn a lot by doing projects and how to deal with different people in order to achieve results.

The courses are well structured and directly related to current issues in the business world. My first few months in the first year were quite challenging because I had to adapt to a different style of teaching and studying. But it's all good now. The studying atmosphere is energizing, encouraging and simply awesome!
