THE HULT STUDENT “Being at Hult has made me step outside of my comfort zone... for me, it has been a massive change in personality and confidence, which Hult has nurtured and helped me to grow.” Suzanne Rasmussen Norwegian Class of 2018 Boston and New York campus Degree: Masters in Finance Languages spoken: Norwegian and English Why Hult? The culture at Hult really separates this school from any other business school. The student body is made up of people from all around the world and as a result, there is a uniquely global buzz on campus. This makes many of the classes even more interesting as it drags the discussions to a global view, and we all get a better understanding of how all the different cultures play a role in the corporate world. In an increasingly borderless business landscape, an understanding of global cultures can help you better understand different markets. Not to forget, at Hult you get the opportunity to work in global teams, which is a skill that gives you an advantage in your career. Favorite thing outside of the classroom? The Hult Tech Club has held some great events this year. I went with them to the MIT hackathon and it really spiked my interest for the whole concept of hackathons. The club also had a few robotics workshops where I’ve gained insight into the exciting new technology available to our generation—and how this can be used across multiple sectors. How has Hult changed you as a person? Being at Hult has made me step outside of my comfort zone. As the classes are run in an interactive way, I have become comfortable with public speaking. Earlier this year, I attended a speaker event, and during the Q&A session of the talk, I raised my hand and asked a question. This was the first time I had ever done that. It might not sound like much, but for me, it has been a massive change in personality and confidence, which Hult has nurtured and helped me to grow.

I wanted to acquire new knowledge and develop an understanding of the world so I could be confident in peer-to-peer discussions, no matter the topic. The pro-business and pro-entrepreneurship environment in Boston helped me to do just that. HULT.EDU/APPLY 25
