In summary, this has been the best experience in the field of studies
My university experience has been a transformative journey both academically and personally. Studying organizational psychology, human resource management, and leadership provided me with a strong theoretical foundation in understanding how people, strategy, and organizational structures interact. I developed a particular interest in how leadership and organizational culture influence performance, innovation, and long-term sustainability. Throughout my studies, I engaged deeply with research-based frameworks and analytical methods, which strengthened my critical thinking and academic writing skills. Applying theory to real organizational cases allowed me to see the practical implications of strategic decision-making and human capital development. Group work in multicultural and diverse teams also improved my communication skills and ability to collaborate effectively across perspectives. The program challenged me to grow in resilience, independence, and intellectual curiosity. It has prepared me well for further graduate studies in an international environment, where I hope to expand my strategic perspective and contribute to dynamic and globally oriented academic communities.
I’m mostly very happy with my Bachelor in Organizational Psychology, HR and Management at BI Norwegian Business School. The programme has a good academic level, strong exchange opportunities and a clear link to working life. BI is also good at helping students build networks through courses, events and collaboration with companies, which I found really valuable. The student environment is another highlight. There are many active student groups, and the internal structure around the student organisations works well. It makes it easy to get involved and meet people with different interests. The campus feels open and welcoming for international students too, and exchange students are included quickly. If there is something I wish had been different, it’s that the bachelor could have focused a bit more on HR and management. A larger part of the programme ended up being strategy and analysis, which I did enjoy, but it wasn’t exactly what I expected based on the title. All in all, I would recommend this degree to anyone who wants a mix of psychology, leadership, business understanding and a solid student experience.
