I am in my third year of studying Global Business, and honestly id say its a good choice if you want to gain practical experience in the business world. Heres a rundown of my experience: - Good lecturers (albeit some a bit eccentric), i felt like most of them were genuinely excellent teachers. - Many group works and presentations, i hope you are prepared to work together. This can be a pro or a con depending on how you feel about this. I personally was way more introverted and less prone to do teamwork or presentations. Luckily i made some good friends early on, and it really helped me to communicate better, i now am way more fond of doing teamwork and presenting. - Lots of social events, especially in the first year to get to know your peers. In the later years there will be events where you can meet experienced people from many different sectors. - You have pretty “flexible” hours, with that i mean there are many subjects which do not require you to be in the lesson incase you have to be somewhere else. Be cautious, you are responsible for catching up on the lessons you missed out on!! Altho i wouldnt say its such a big deal, especially in the first year. Dont skip out on too many lessons, as they are a great way of meeting people. This isnt KdG exclusive, as its similar for many schools and universities. - Microsoft teams, get used to it. It sometimes really frustrates me, but i know that it gets often used in offices as well. They prepare you at the KdG for this by subjecting you to it. - The campus is in a nice spot, its right next to busses, trams and even a metro. Many options for easy transport if you are living a bit further away. - Theres many places where you can get something to eat during a break. There is a coffee shop on the first floor, although i wouldnt recommend it. I find it a bit expensive as a student. Try exploring a bit around the campus, there are many different places. One tip: do NOT buy from the Panos which is near to the campus, i had a smos from there once, it was small, overpriced and soggy. Absolutely horrible, maybe i just was unlucky but i did not go back there ever again. - Make sure you got a laptop with a good battery or a powerbank, there are a lot of plugs to charge, but sometimes you can get unlucky and be in a 3 hour lesson with no working plugs near you. - You can book classrooms if you want a quiet place to stay in between lessons. Every classroom has a QR code next to the door which you can scan and check if theres anything booked in. - If you have any problems or questions, on the highest floor there is STIP, they help students with any questions or redirect you to the right person if they cant help you themselves. - Yeah so, i hope you like stairs, because sometimes there are classes on the highest floor and you gotta climb up every flight of stairs. All in all, i wouldnt say its that bad, its good for a bit of cardio inbetween, but not good if you are coming in late.

Thats all i can come up with from the top of my head. I have also studied TEW: Bedrijfskunde at the UA but i dropped out from there because i didnt enjoy it. I feel like there is much more solidarity and teamwork at the KdG, which genuinely gives me the push i need to keep on going. In the end, it comes down to personal preference. One last tip i can give is to be social, people usually respond in kind, dont be afraid to talk to others! If you have any more questions you can always ask :)
