My passion for creating and exploring new ideas led me to pursue an MS in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. The programme provided valuable methods for developing ideas, understanding key success factors, and connecting with the innovation environment in Iceland. The highlight was learning from excellent professors and fellow students.

I am studying industrial engineering and decided to take innovation courses as electives, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. The courses complement my engineering studies well and are suitable for anyone interested in creating something new. The classes were truly dynamic and enjoyable, tackling real-world problems chosen by the students. The icing on the cake was getting to know students from other disciplines and having the opportunity to collaborate with them.

During my BS studies, I introduced a business idea at the Gulleggið competition, which inspired me to start my company, Nordic Green Travel. Pursuing an MS in Innovation and Business Development was a natural fit. The programme equipped me with essential tools to develop business ideas, which I applied to grow my business. The diverse backgrounds of my peers enriched our group projects, and the exceptional instructors made learning enjoyable.

The practical M.Fin. programme suited my long-term career goals, offering flexibility and the ability to combine innovation with finance. It enhanced my management skills and broadened my professional network.
