Global Network Week: RBS students at Spain’s IE Business School
IE Business School is one of Europe's top three and one of the world's top ten outstanding business schools with a strong teaching faculty and system. This time we had the chance to study at IE Business School in Spain for a week through the GNW program, which is a good opportunity to broaden our vision and increase our knowledge. It is also a good international element of the MBA learning process.
During our visit, we learned changes about the world’s economic situation in Europe after the economic crisis and its future direction. Students were also divided into groups to research different issues and each group presented a report at the end of the week. This helped us improve on both theoretical and practical problem-solving abilities as MBA students.
Outside of classes, we also used the spare time to visit the beautiful country of Spain. We organized a visit to Madrid, watched football games and enjoyed a variety of other activities, such as flamenco. We worked with students from different schools and different countries, developing profound friendships along the way.
We are thankful to the School of Business, Renmin University of China for offering this great opportunity and also grateful to IE Business School for carefully preparing this trip from the courses to the arrangement activities. We hope to have another chance to participate in the GNW program at other Business schools in the future!
