What our students say
"Before I became part of the ICM program, I have never experienced such comradery amongst students and lecturers. That comradery further enrichens the diverse cultural environment of ICM as students are always free to share their opinions and not feel discouraged by the lecturers. The lecturers are experienced in their respective fields and try to educate us both theoretically and pragmatically. Another thing worth mentioning is the relationship that we “students” build with one another. Everybody is welcoming, acts selflessly, and brings different ideas to the table."

"Studying at CUAS has been a very exciting journey so far. I consider myself very fortunate to be a part of such a diverse environment. It amazes me when I reflect daily on everything I am capable and able to learn and do at CUAS. While online learning can be complex and exhausting at times, with the support of the professors and colleagues it has definitely brought out the best of myself and I have only learnt and grown from it. "

"The first thing that I noticed when I started the studies, was that ICM was not just about business. I chose to study management at CUAS because I was interested in business, and more specifically, management. I thought, “well, I am going to study some formulas, how to work on different teams and here we go.” But oh, how wrong I was… I was surprised with the diversity, and the wide and broad view I took in learning."
