"I attended this summer course to supplement my degree with a firm foundation and insight into international business, as well as adding a competitive edge to my CV. The impact was more than I could have imagined ... My improved insight and understanding of all parts of international business were a huge advantage for my graduate prospects, leading me to a vacation scheme and consequently an offer of a training contract at a top international law firm."

"Prior to taking the International Business summer course at ESCP Europe, I was a science graduate working within a global organisation and seeking a career transition from support to managerial roles.

"The course served to put all of my practical work experience into an overall business context. During subsequent months, I was able to directly link some key learning points from the topics covered to my role within an international marketing team ... The course also provided exposure to ESCP alumni and companies such as Estée Lauder, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup and Bloomberg."

"I found the course insightful because I got a sense of how intricate the different sectors of a business are, such as research and development, advertising, sales, marketing, human resources and finance. It also made me realise how interdependent international businesses have to be in order to compete successfully within the market.

"The most rewarding aspect of the course was the range of guest speakers. The visit to the Bloomberg London offices, a great example of a successful international business, made the course even more unique."
