Aminul Islam, PhD
I teach corporate social responsibility and academic writing, which students usually take during their first year of studies when they are just getting acquainted with this new chapter in their lives. By the time they reach their final year and attend my 'Creativity as a Scientific Field of Study', I can see how the same students are full of creative ideas that they want to implement in the real world. It is very rewarding to see that development and how young people reach their full potential during the „Creativity and Business Innovation“ program.
Janek Popell, MSc
I like to implement my wide range of experience in international business by reading the basics of economics, sales, and marketing as well as the business innovation lectures. During the „Creativity and Business Innovation“ curriculum my mission is to help students understand the basics of entrepreneurship and give comprehensive, innovative, and practical competencies on how to start, run, and be successful in the sustainable business landscape.

I’m extremely grateful that I have had a chance to be a part of EUAS. EUAS is a place where students can freely meet and talk with faculty and staff. That helps to create an excellent learning environment. EUAS provided me with several opportunities to grow and explore my skills. The emphasis on fun activities along with education helped me a lot. I felt that the environment was positive and healthy and the teachers were highly supportive.

I chose to study creativity and business innovation because as a future entrepreneur, I believe that the knowledge and concepts behind CBI will give me the confidence to establish a company/startup and hone my skills, as well as learn from the experiences of others. A huge plus is that the learning environment is located in Tallinn, one of Europe's start-up hotspots with opportunities for me to find the right team, shape the right products, and take off with my entrepreneurial career. The most positive side of EUAS is that students are from various nationalities and the staff are super helpful with not just academic-related issues but also helping you with information and advice on how to integrate into the Estonian culture and learn the Estonian language up to level A2.

I am confident in my decision to pursue studies at EUAS due to their track record of grooming successful and innovative professionals. One of the main reasons I chose this curriculum is because it promotes globalization through education. I appreciate that EUAS motivates students to step out of their comfort zones and study more. The staff at EUAS are committed, professional, ethical, and hold high standards. The lecturers have extensive experience and are focused on their goals. Overall, my experience with EUAS has been fantastic, and I credit my Head of Curriculum for establishing a pleasant atmosphere that greatly contributed to my success.
