EU Business School’s\u00a0Online MBA students celebrated the\u00a0end of Term III, 2017, by\u00a0getting together\u00a0for an on-campus\u00a0week of\u00a0student bonding and\u00a0networking in Barcelona.<\/p>\n

Every June, EU hosts on-campus week in Barcelona. All Online MBA students are invited to the EU Barcelona campus. Events throughout the week\u00a0give students the opportunity to\u00a0make real life connections\u00a0with\u00a0their fellow peers, as well as business professionals and faculty members.<\/p>\n

This year EU welcomed 17 students from all over the world. From June 5-10,\u00a0the students\u00a0enjoyed lectures by guest speakers,\u00a0industrial visits, networking events and team building activities.\u00a0Those who were graduating ended the week in style,\u00a0by attending the EU Barcelona commencement ceremony<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This year,\u00a0EU\u00a0Online MBA students enjoyed the following:<\/p>\n

Guest Speaker<\/h2>\n

Alberto Platz, VP of Global Talent Acquisition & Engagement at Swarovski, was the guest speaker this year. Platz recounted\u00a0his 30 years\u00a0working for Swarovski,\u00a0and his journey from the\u00a0sales department to becoming HR manager.\u00a0Afterwards, he gave students\u00a0advice on people management\u00a0and how to be successful in the HR sector, something especially relevant for our MBA in Human Resources Management<\/a> students.<\/p>\n

Industrial Visits<\/h2>\n

Our students also had the opportunity to gain an insight into the inner workings of successful businesses in Barcelona. They\u00a0visited\u00a0the HQ of Almirall, the worldwide pharmaceutical giant, and also\u00a0Garmin, a leading, innovative\u00a0GPS technology company.<\/p>\n

Team Building<\/h2>\n

Afterwards, came one of the most interesting activities of the week.\u00a0In an\u00a0Escape Room<\/strong>, students\u00a0got to test the soft skills acquired throughout the program. Aside from having fun, students also\u00a0had the chance to work on their team building and leadership skills, essential attributes for the world of business.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Networking Events<\/h2>\n

Lastly,\u00a0a networking cocktail event was\u00a0organized at La Casa de les Punxes in Barcelona, a symbolic building designed by the famous architect Puig I Cadafalch. This\u00a0was a fitting end to\u00a0the week and, above all, the 2016-17 academic year. Students reflected on all they had learned over the year and\u00a0their\u00a0experiences during\u00a0on-campus week, while\u00a0looking forward to\u00a0the new academic year, commencing this fall.<\/p>\n
