"What makes Rennes School of Business special? Is it its faculty, teaching method and ambiance? Is it its professional teachers with enriched real-world exposure? Is it their customised focus and attention to the students? It makes them more than just teachers: they are actually mentors who guide and support students to achieve their career goals. In addition to that, my ultimate aim is to do a PhD in Finance and I believe that the MSc in International Finance (MSc IF) will enable me to acquire specialised and focused knowledge with professional acumen to achieve these objectives."
