„The FS Summer School was a really great way for me to spend my summer holidays. It was a very intense two weeks in which we got to do a lot of different subjects all to do with Finance and Management…The lecturers were really good and eager to help us learn and understand all of the materials. The other students were all really motivated too, which made for a great learning environment. I recommend this summer school for anyone who wants to learn more about different Management and Finance subjects in an intense but fun summer school environment.”
