>> ALUMNI AND FACULTY NEWS

Ulugbek Suyumov, BBA 1997

EU was the best option since it offered the degree I was seeking in English. Little did I know about all the other advantages of EU, like class size; our class was only 15 students, meaning professors could allocate more time per student. Another advantage is the fact that most professors were simultaneously full-time employees in leading institutions, which meant that we had excellent links between the academic and the real business worlds. Finally, the case study approach and the composition of the curricula matched exactly the skills that were required of me upon graduation. One of the things I mention with some trainees is that what they learn in university has little application to the real job market in some areas. EU prepared me to adapt faster to each position I have held to date. Thank you EU!
