香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Business students embrace international study again
Business students from 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 are once again able to travel to Jyv盲skyl盲, Finland to experience an international summer school at the JAMK University of Applied Sciences.
Finland鈥檚 education system is widely regarded as one of the best in the world.
香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Business Professor Blair Baldwin, who has taught Services Design at JAMK for several summers, says working in Finland has helped him innovate and create new teaching methodologies.
鈥淛AMK employs experiential learning across its curriculum,鈥 he says. 鈥淭hey stress critical thinking, creativity and communications. There is an emphasis on teamwork and respect for human dignity. They generally produce thoughtful, inclusive risk takers.鈥
Baldwin is impressed with the Finnish system. 鈥淚t helps me understand why they are the happiest country in the world.鈥
Fifteen Business students will be attending the three-week International Business School in Jyv盲skyl盲. Fourth-year student MacKenna Lenarcic says students and professors who participated in the program in previous years speak very highly of it. The opportunity to study abroad is one of the reasons she chose 香港六合彩开奖结果查询.
鈥淚 want to diversify my education and learn different cultures,鈥 says Lenarcic. She says 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 has one of the best business programs in B.C., and she wants to see how it differs from the program in Finland.
Student Sarah Hargreaves looks forward to getting international experience and broadening her horizons.
鈥淚 hope it is something a potential employer will like,鈥 she says, adding she was attracted to Finland for its reputation for being progressive and safe. 鈥淚 wanted to find a place that feels like home.鈥
Baldwin says, in his experience, 鈥淥ur students identify with many of the values that are held dear by the Finnish.鈥
The Finns believe it is important to teach students collaboration, so they鈥檒l help each other reach their goals, instead of just focusing on elite individuals. It鈥檚 an interesting concept to fourth-year student Luke Buis.
鈥淚t seems to be more of a collective mindset, rather than rugged individualism,鈥 he says.
Buis already runs his own mechanical engineering business, and is interested in the developing leadership and communication skills to help him grow his business.
The 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 students who successfully complete the JAMK Leadership, Service Design and Communication summer school will receive credits towards their Bachelor of Business Administration at 香港六合彩开奖结果查询. The three-week program runs through June.
