It's a mindset that will stay with me far beyond my time at TBS Education.
“ The MSc International Business at TBS Education is built around real-world experience. From a consulting project with Ibercompound alongside a BCG consultant, to a three-week internationalization mission for Coco-mat, every project pushed us to apply our knowledge in practice. Company visits to global players like Gartner, SAP and PTC further broadened our perspective. What I value most is the interdisciplinary approach — here, everything connects, and that changes the way you think.”
