My programme
IBP is definitely unique. And broad. The fact that we both have courses about politics and business is without a doubt very interesting, but it also means that you cannot like everything equally. There will be something you don’t find as interesting, and that was something I found very challenging in the beginning. Because does that then mean that it wasn’t the right programme for me? But I have learnt that it is like that for everyone, and it is also intriguing because it means there is so much to learn! And it can also be helpful – it has definitely given me an idea about what I want to do in the future, and I think the huge differences between courses like Microeconomics and Political Science, as well as opportunities like Case Club and CBS Case Teams have made me realize that I could see myself in a consultancy someday.
The most important thing about IBP, however, is, in my opinion, the amazing combination between the academic and the social aspects. There is always something to do, everyone is open and happy and just want to get to know each other. I loved that when I started IBP. There is always someone to talk to about everything, and something to do to take your mind off the readings for next week. I have personally used IBP’s student organization IBP Union to take my mind off things!
