🎉Meet our FIS Student Ambassadors! 👉Meet Ege! She’s a first-year student in the Master’s degree programme Information Systems Management (ISM). Ege is new to Prague and ready to answer your questions about moving to Czechia, living here, and studying in the ISM programme. 🖊Hi everyone! I’m Ege, and I’m from Türkiye. I’m a first-year student in the Information Systems Management master’s programme at VŠE, focusing on Management of Business Informatics. Before moving here, I worked in business/IT roles, and that experience made me want to understand the management side of digital projects more, so studying again felt like a natural step. I wanted a master’s that connects technology with management in a practical, real-world way, and ISM matched exactly what I was looking for. After a few months in the programme, it’s been clear to me how the courses relate to real challenges companies face today and how they give me the space to grow beyond my previous experience. 👉Even though I had never visited Prague before, it had always been one of my dream destinations. Moving somewhere completely new felt like a risk worth taking, and it truly paid off! The city is beautiful, easy to settle into, and full of people from all over the world. I’m really glad to be part of the FIS Ambassador Team this year. Moving to a new country and starting a new programme can feel overwhelming at first, so if you’re curious about ISM, life at VŠE, or settling into Prague, feel free to reach out. I’m always happy to help and share what I’ve learned along the way. #askstudents #fismasters #movingtoprague #studyinczechia #informationmanagement @fis_vse @vseinternationalstudents @studyinprague

👉Last Friday was dorm life at its peak. ISM students booked a game room at the dorm, ping pong got way too intense, table football was chaos, they played tiny Christmas games, did Secret Santa, and somehow ended up teaching each other their traditional dances. They also tried to eat cookies off our faces with no hands! 😭 It was the reset we needed right before the finals hit! #askstudents #fismasters #studentlife #livinginprague❤️ #dormitories #dancing #secretsanta🎅 #pingpong

👉Read the new Blog written by Tommaso, EDS student ‼Guide for a long weekend in Zagreb, Croatia‼ 🖊How did I get there? One of the best parts of studying at our university is how international Prague is. You can meet people from all over the world, often in unexpected ways. In my first weeks here, my American roommate and I were hopping between pubs around the city, a great way to meet new friends, especially Czech ones. One particular night we met a group of people who later became our friends. One of them, that I met by chance that night out, invited me to Zagreb and offered to host me. To go from Prague to Zagreb I booked a night FlixBus🚌, a cheap, reliable but slow way to travel… nine hours in total. In the summer season there’s actually a faster (and even cheaper) option to travel there, a direct Prague to Zagreb flight. For the rest of the year the bus is your only budget choice if you want to go to Zagreb. It was a Thursday, after classes; I went to Prague Main Station to catch my bus to Zagreb. I fell asleep in the Czech Republic and woke up already in Croatia. 👉Read the whole blog at our webpage, more information in bio. #fisbachelor #studentsblog #askstudents #livinginprague #greatcity #studentlife #exploreeurope @vseinternationalstudents

✨ Meet our FIS Student Ambassadors! ✨ 👉Say hello to Anh Duong, a student of the Bachelor’s program Economic Data Science and our newest FIS Student Ambassador! You can meet her at the VŠE Open Day or reach out anytime via our AskStudent webpage. 🖊Hey guys! My name is Anh Duong. I was born and raised in Vietnam until the age of 14, when my parents made a drastic turn and decided to reside permanently in the Czech Republic. I must say I’m grateful for being able to move to a new country and get exposed to a different culture at such a young age. I suppose that sudden life-changing decision my parents made has undoubtedly affected me in many ways. That’s also the reason why I’m quite spontaneous when it comes to making critical choices. At the moment, I’m a VŠE student majoring in Economic Data Science. Although I never thought of opting for a career in data analysis, this was the only programme I applied for when choosing university. I can’t stress enough how glad I was to be accepted into this school. VŠE has always been ranked among the top business schools in Central Europe, and it lives up to its reputation. To be honest, I was quite clueless when searching for study programmes as I didn’t know my passion or have a dream job I wanted to pursue. I’m sure a lot of you are in the same position as I was. We feel lost, scared and overwhelmed. But it’s quite alright! Going to university is a huge shift and it marks one of the most important milestones in our lives – we are officially adults and it’s time for us to write our own stories. So, if you’ve got questions, don’t hesitate to reach out. I may not know it all, but I’m happy to help and guide you through the process of finding your own answers. #askstudents #fisbachelor #datascience #studyinczechia @fis_vse @vseinternationalstudents
