Our Mission and Pedagogical Foundation<br />

Our mission is to help students become effective real-life problem-solvers in companies or<br />

institutions. For this reason problem based learning (PBL) is our pedagogical foundation. We<br />

are guided by the following three principles:<br />

1. Problem-oriented approach to teaching<br />

2. Group studies<br />

3. Integration of theory and practice<br />

The PBL approach to teaching encourages our students to actively participate in their learning<br />

process as they choose theories, models and methods that they consider to be necessary to<br />

solve real-world problems.<br />

We also encourage our students to form groups for the purpose of writing their projects. Each<br />

group has an academic supervisor whose role is to guide the group through the process of<br />

conceiving, investigating and writing the project. In other words, the supervisors function as<br />

sparring partners.<br />

Group studies help our students to develop learning communities in which they feel<br />

comfortable in developing new ideas. They also enhance their communication skills as well<br />

as their ability to manage group dynamics.<br />

Finally, we encourage our students to identify theories that will help them gain improved<br />

insights into the problems they work on, and to critically reflect on the appropriateness of the<br />

theories before applying them to solve the problems. If existing theories do not provide<br />

adequate insights into the problems, we encourage them to explore combinations of theories<br />

that can help them understand the problem.<br />

Business experience<br />

From January (2011) till August (2011):<br />

I have worked as a voluntary Village-leader for Children International Summer Villages (CISV).<br />

CISV is an <strong>international</strong> organization, founded on the aim of achieving world peace through crosscultural<br />

understanding. With four 11 years old Danish kids from Denmark I travelled to Forli (Italy)<br />

for one month, where 9 other countries participated. In total we were 10 leaders and 40 kids from all<br />

around the world. Together the leaders planned activities, took care of each other’s kids, being a<br />

mom-daddy figure for the kids, and educated them in how to respect and communicate with one<br />

another, even though we have different backgrounds, language, nationalities and cultures. Before<br />

going to Forli, I spend a lot of time with the Danish kids and their parents to prepare for the trip and<br />

make sure we worked as a team.<br />

Career objectives<br />

I would love to work in and <strong>international</strong> company with activities and opportunities around the<br />

world. I want to be an active part of a team and develop my work through the task and<br />

responsibilities that I get. Communication management and <strong>business</strong> across countries is a very<br />

exciting and interesting field for me and would like to work in this area. I wish to be inspired and<br />

motivated by my surroundings and gain knowledge and improve my skills, be a part of a teamwork<br />

and try to do my best in what I do.<br />

Leisure<br />

Sport is a very important part of my live. I have been a competition swimmer for four years and<br />

joining the gym whenever I have time. Being active is very important for me. Beside sports I like to<br />

be social and do voluntary work. In my spare time I work as a voluntary at the student-house, where<br />

I spend time and helping whenever they need a hand. Travel is also a big part of my life, to see the<br />

world and get to know people around the world. To be inspired and learn from other cultures and<br />

countries brings joy to my life. I also live in an International college in Denmark where I have met<br />

and lived with people from all around the world. I love to expand my acquaintances and increase<br />

my knowledge about people.<br />
