Interesting finance courses but somewhat dismay in fundamental ones

Norway, Graduate
Business Studies, 2019
Overall
Courses are structured in such a way that first provides the students with necessary fundamental knowledge and then immerse them in the more advanced and up-to-date finance knowledge. 

First semester starts with mathematics, econometrics, and asset pricing. Other business courses are included such as microeconomics and business ethics. Then the second and fourth semesters are when the students dwell in more complicated and specific focuses in finance such as Investments, Valuation, Risk Management, and Portfolio Management. 

The core courses in finance are all very good, the materials are up-to-date, and most of the professors are academically and professionally excellent with in-depth knowledge in their field. However, the basic courses are led by not very good professors when they fail to provide justifiable reasons in grading. 

Academic structure of the two-year master program is set so it's not possible to shorten to the program if one wishes to. Furthermore, it is worth noted that BI is a private school with tuition of roughly USD11,000 per year.

Overall, BI provides finance students with the most updated knowledge in finance, from M&A finance to asset management.

Experience BBA at BI
Camille L
Norway,
Management Science, 2023
Overall
My first two years of BBA were mostly under Covid-19 restrictions. 
It was pretty hard to stay motivated, but I think BI did its best to help students.
Classes were online, but as soon as Covid-19 got under control it was possible to go back to school.
My teachers this semester are great, and I enjoy going to school.
However, it is hard to find internships when you are an international student who does not speak Norwegian.

Careers
BI organizes workshops to learn how to write a proper CV and cover letter, and how to use LinkedIn.
Those workshops were useful to me.

Experience at Petit Bateau during 2 months internship
