Statements of our students
In June 2012 the first on-campus time of MBA Renewables took place in Berlin. We made use of this great opportunity to talk to our students about their motivations to study on the MBA Renewables and the kinds of experiences they had during their first semester on the course. We have compiled some of their statements to give an insight into their opinions. For each person we state the name, position, company/institution and country of origin.
