GPA (point): 3 out of 4

GPA (point): 3 out of 4

The programme was four years in duration. During my first two years, in addition to studying the core subjects of economics and sociology, I also studied Business Information Management, Business Maths and Statistics and Quantitative Research Methods. After completion of my second year I spent the summer and the first semester of year 3 on cooperative education, which provides practical and relevant work experience. In the second semester of year 3 I studied in Karlova v Praze a partner institution in Prague where I had an opportunity to study additional modules in economics.In year 4 I returned to campus to continue my study, an important part of which is the undertaking of a research project on a chosen subject mine being in economics.
