The Students’ Experience

Graduates of the EMBA program at AUBG provide inspiring examples of how the program transforms careers and opens up new opportunities. “The program includes specialists from various fields—sales, marketing, logistics,” said Plamen Ivanov at the end of the first week of classes.

“The opportunity to exchange experiences with people from different sectors is extremely valuable.”

“It enriches every professional, as a good specialist is someone who has knowledge in several areas and can make better decisions by seeing the bigger picture.”

Pavel Nestorov (BA ’22), who decided to expand his knowledge after receiving his BA degree at AUBG, emphasizes the importance of building connections and acquiring new skills: “The goal of the program is, of course, to broaden my knowledge, to meet and strengthen relationships with my cohort and previous cohorts. The main motivation for enrolling was that it prepares you for higher positions in the workforce. I am currently working in this field, but I need much more expertise in the economic area to gain a comprehensive understanding.”
