My internship with SITA was in Arnhem, Netherlands. I succesfully managed the project of automating the reporting of Key Performance Indicators. Moreover I got an insight to the Controlling department and created a new M&A process.

Der Master in Finanzen war nicht nur ein sehr interessanter Zusatz zu meinem MBA, sondern als einer der 5 besten weltweit auch ein großartiger Test um unter hohem Stress weiterhin Leistung zu bringen und gleichzeitig fachspezifische Themen zu lernen. Ich habe mich in den Wahlfächern auf corporate leadership (z.B. Strategy & Finance, Turnaround Strategies und creating value through corp. change) und M&A (e.g. Asset Pricing, M&A and typical mistakes) spezialisiert.

As I want to make the most out of this experience I decided for a dual degree course with an MBA and a Master in advanced finance. I successfully finished the terms that belong to the MBA being first in class and among the top 1% of the whole intake. Consequently I was honored by being on the dean's list and already introduced to the BGS society.
