Jasmyn Boeger, International Event Management
"The most exciting aspect of my course of study at Karlshochschule is its relevance to commercial practice. For example, company projects give us the chance to implement ideas we have looked at in the lectures. This degree program covers a range of different fields within the event sector and makes it possible for me to choose a specialization during my studies which will give me advantages later when working in this sector. Furthermore, I benefit from different international and intercultural perspectives, as well as various fields of application, which means I won't be restricted to working in Germany. Guest lectures and excursions to event venues provide me with wonderful and varied insights into the real workings of this sector and also allow me to already start building up my professional network. And on top of all that, I'm very impressed by the personal support from the head of our degree program, who is always available to give us advice."

In particular, I'm learning how to bring people together and motivate them, in both my business and private lives."
