Juliette Manhes, MSc in International Hospitality Management

I love how international our program is. It is international in many ways: students, teachers but also as we change campus to Shanghai in April. It brings different perspectives to everyone, enables us to learn about different cultures, and also prepares us to work in an international environment.
