I love my university and I am satisfied with my education, which gives me the opportunity to study the structure of business and combine training with other aspects of my life. However, I lack the study of theory, so I often have to learn something myself outside the context of classroom lessons.
Finnish educational system consistently ranking as one of the best in the world, and Xamk is known to be at the top of Universities of Applied Science in Finland.
