What led to your decision to stay and study in Germany for one year?
I wanted to get in touch with a completely different culture.

How do you like Pforzheim so far?
I like it a lot. The people here are very friendly and helpful. I got lost on my very second day in the city centre of Pforzheim and a polite lady helped me to get back on the right way to my new home here. I also noticed that people here are very driven and motivated and work hard. I am looking foward to getting to know Pforzheim better and to learning the German language a little bit.

Agile Project Management, Negotiation, Big Data Analytics, Financial Management and Control, Cross Border Cooperation, Management by KPI, Management of Emerging Technologies - Technical Concepts/ Organizational Concepts and Leadership.
