Life in Pisa

Almost every graduate who applies for a master program has certain expectations and ambitions. I too was not an exception. During the course, I tried to acquire knowledge as much as possible for my career ahead. The 6 hour long intensive course suited me well, taking into consideration I had to study at home to have the necessary understanding of knowledge to follow the course. A major part of the teaching was highly theoretical and difficult to understand without a good mathematical and analytical background. But, with the help of both – the colleagues and the professors –, it was possible to overcome the hurdles. I am delighted that besides the studies, the bonding among the students in the class was at an amicable level which was also supported by teaching staff by organizing different events. And so, I am glad to say that during the year of Master Risk Management course I have significantly improved my knowledge and competence in making decisions in regards to asset management, and I have acquainted with great, humble and aspiring people.
