BSc/MSc Study Abroad Ambassador
Field of study: Bachelor of Commerce
"From the beauty of living in a small German town like Vallendar to being a part of a close-knit student community full of spirit and pride, my experience at WHU is one that I will cherish forever. Every day on your WHU study abroad journey is like no other, whether it includes international learnings from renowned industry professionals, traveling to different parts of Europe, or ending the night at the weekly themed Tauschie Tuesdays. By the end of it, you don't even realize how well you have integrated into the German culture. You walk away with a wealth of knowledge and lifelong friends from all over the world - it is truly special and indescribable."
"My experience at WHU was life changing - I lived in Hohrer Strasse and met the most beautiful, incredible and inspiring people. I found a family where we would have insanely long dinners, travel to places together and make time for gym and grocery shopping sessions together! The gym in WHU is truly the best and they do offer yoga and indoor cycling classes too :) I also loved the super fun Tauschie Tuesday activities and in WHU, even as a Tauschie, you’re family and the International Relations Office ensures that all of us fit in really well!"
Field of study: Marketing
"My name is Spencer Brown and I study Commerce at McMaster University in Hamilton, Canada. My experience at WHU was incredible as the students and professors were very welcoming to the exchange students. The events and efforts made by the VIP team at WHU did not go unnoticed, as they allowed the exchange students to be immersed in the WHU community right from day 1. The courses I took also provided me with a unique learning experience as it relates to the class sizes, the weight of the exams, and overall lecture style. I strongly recommend WHU to any exchange student considering applying."
"What I will miss most about my semester at WHU is no doubt the very unique spirit that I’ve never beheld before. I want to emphasize students' are all mutually eager to succeed, with a mindset that nothing in life is impossible. Euromasters, IdeaLab and other fantastic student hosted events are just a few proofs of success. WHU is also a great place to network and gain valuable knowledge within management and finance. Apart from the many new friends I’ve made, I have met amazing professors and learned countless amount of useful knowledge. "
"I am a sports person. Once I reached WHU, I was so excited when I got to know that they have a free entrance with 24/7 gym room. I love exercising. The equipment in the gym is absolutely sufficient enough for everyone. WHU also provides German Language courses which is so helpful for foreigners with 0 knowledge of German like me where at least I am able to communicate with the hawkers in German now."
MBA Study Abroad Ambassador
Field of study: MBA
"WHU is an incredible community in the heart of Düsseldorf. The staff and student body are exceptionally helpful and welcoming. I felt perfectly at home in WHU and had no difficulty with the classes or everyday life in Germany. Furthermore, the central location helped me travel most of Western and Central Europe during my exchange semester. Coming to WHU is a great way to learn more about business in Europe, experience the diverse cultures that make up the continent, and become part of a wonderful community."
"I found the exchange to WHU a great addition to my MBA (having studied in an emerging market) gaining insights from developing and developed countries. I particularly enjoyed the Competitive and Corporate Strategy Tools course. If you plan to go on an exchange, WHU should definitely be on your list. It is one of the best universities in Europe, and the programme is well organised by their international team. You will not only meet a lot of German students, but also plenty of other nationalities from around the world. Highly recommended!"
"The WHU MBA Exchange Program has been one of the best experience of my life. It has given me the excellent opportunity to be taught by wide experience and international level professors and also be among so many talent multinational and multicultural cohorts. Moreover, since WHU Campus Düsseldorf is located in the most populated lively city in Germany, it has its enjoyable ambiance to see things around and lots of activities to do. Having wide travel opportunities is also great. I have visited over 15 amazing European countries while studying there.
"Studying abroad through WHU was an amazing experience. WHU Düsseldorf campus is a small, collaborative environment that really gives you the opportunity to know most of the current students, staff, and faculty. It is also centrally located which makes it the perfect hub to travel all around Europe. During my stay I visited Berlin, Munich, Amsterdam, London, Dublin, Prague, Budapest, and several cities in France. In short, if I had to do it all again, I would certainly pick Düsseldorf for my study abroad location and would highly recommend it."
