"My name is Maxime Polis, Master 2 student in Economics at HEC Liège. I am honored to be the first HEC's International Ambassador. During my Bachelor, I worked hard to qualify for an Erasmus. My stay at BI Norwegian Business School has had a profound impact on my lifestyle and vision of work. During my Master studies, I chose for a Double Degree at Hohenheim Universität. My first semester being online, I volunteered as a Buddy for an incoming student from Turkey with whom I exchanged culturally. I have also attended a Summer School in Brussels whereby I got to improve my hard skills but also build up professional relationships with European peers. This year, I have signed up as a buddy for two students, one from Germany and one from Portugal. We have had the pleasure to meet at several occasions. Moreover, I have also proudly represented our university within an Easter School at the University of Surrey (UK)."
Marina Vassileva University of National and World Economy (Bulgaria) "Être étudiante à 53 ans ? C'est étrange, mais pas impossible. Je suis Marina Vassileva et à 50 ans, j'ai décidé de poursuivre mes études supérieures à l’Université Nationale d’Économie à Sofia en Bulgarie, ce que je ne regrette pas. En effet, je ressens une nouvelle force d’énergie et de connaissance. J'ai eu l'honneur d’être nominée par mon Université pour un programme Erasmus+ et je n'ai pas hésité une seconde pour la destination : HEC Liège. J’ai rencontré de nombreux jeunes étudiants, très intelligents, talentueux et ambitieux. Au début, mon âge les a choqués mais ils ne m'ont pas pour autant tenue à l'écart, bien au contraire. J’ai reçu des invitations pour travailler en équipe, préparer nos travaux pratiques et aller à des conférences. Les professeurs sont de merveilleux spécialistes. Ils présentent leurs cours de manière très intéressante et facile à comprendre. De plus, la plateforme universitaire nous offre énormément de moyens d’apprentissage. Je souhaiterais exprimer ma gratitude à tous ceux qui m’ont aidée, soutenue et motivée. N’abandonnez jamais vos rêves peu importe votre âge!"

Reflika Ramelyane Solbridge International School of Business (BFSU) “My name is Reflika Ramelyane, I come from Indonesia and study in a Chinese Business School that has led me to Belgium. The significant difference between these countries led me to get used to the changing environment and culture, it was clear that this had broadened my thinking and skills. To study everyone needs to travel, the issues are how far and what impact will this have on your studies? Through this exchange program, I hone my skills in critical thinking, problem solving, communication, and creativity which are really needed in the future. I believe this experience is not only useful for now, but also for the future. Because my knowledge skills such as academic, character building, intercultural and international understanding have increased so that I am ready to face a brighter future.”
