HAMK congratulates our International Business student Morics Krumins and Nokian Krp about last week played final games and men's floorball silver medal!🥳🥈
Krumins is a great example of the ability to combine professional sports and studies. He praises for example the flexibility of the study schedule and the understanding teachers at HAMK.
We also asked the classic question of, how does it feel now?
👉 "It feels great after long and tough season to be awarded with the silver medal! Of course it’s not the gold, but I’m really happy about the achievement as it was our teams @nokiankrp first final in history! 💪🏽💥"

"I wish I could do it one more time!"
Diana Jevdokimenko, International Business student at HAMK, is having the time of her life pursuing her double degree programme in Deggendorf Institute of Technology, Germany! 🇩🇪 Diana's interest in traveling and desire to try living in different countries is what got her interested in this opportunity. She chose Deggendorf because none of her friends had ever been, and she wanted to explore something new!
So far Diana has really enjoyed fintech and investment banking courses. She is a fresh investor herself and wants to learn more before investing bigger amounts. The most fun part of her experience has been after-class activities such as pumpkin carving and hiking in the fall and ice skating in the winter.
Diana encourages her peers to take part in exchange or study abroad period. She explains that funding is available for studies abroad and that she herself received a grant to cover necessary expenses. 'Bill Gates once said, "the secret to my success is that I don’t miss any opportunity". So am I, I decided to take this opportunity and see where it takes me rather than to stay at the same point', Diana says.
❗Interested in going for an exchange abroad? The application deadline for autumn 2022 is Tuesday, March 15! Check out hamk.fi/exchange-studies for more information. Don't miss out❗

A few months ago there was a search for international student assistants to help HAMK improve international students' arrival experience.
Out of many great applications 10 students were selected to work on "The Best Arrival Experience" based on research and their own experiences arriving to HAMK. Today we got to see the students present their findings and the audience was blown away by each group's hard work and dedication to the project! 🤯 Great work! 💪
