OUR STUDENT ÖNDER FİLİZ HAS BEEN ACCEPTED BY LONDON SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS AS A GRADUATE STUDENT
Önder Filiz is a senior level student at the Business Administration Department with scholarship, which is granted by the university, as he is one of the most successful students. He is also pursuing a double degree in Psychology. Filiz has applied to six leading universities in Europe and US. All his applications have been accepted but he would like to continue his education at LSE since LSE is the world’s second best university in social sciences following Harvard University according to The Times. There are 450 Turkish graduates of LSE among which there are famous graduates such as Kemal Derviş, Director of the United Nations Development Program, Emre Gönensay, former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Nilgün Arıkan, EU General Secretariat National Program Director.
Önder Filiz who is very happy to be accepted by LSE states his thought in the following way: “In our globalized world, international borders are diminishing. In this world where competition is intense, subjects such as international finance and international marketing are gaining importance. Hence, I think that, individuals who have the related experience, knowledge and skills will help shape the world’s dynamics. Therefore, I feel enthusiastic about this opportunity because I believe that this type of education will help an individual gain necessary knowledge and skills as well as helping him do business all around the world.
After completing his graduate education, Önder Filiz plans an international career in consumer electronics or automotive sector and in the long run to become an executive in an international firm.
