WHAT
DO THE STUDENTS THINK OF THE MINE PROGRAM?
Read some alumni
testimonials and the full
version of this extract written by Sameh
Abdel Naby who graduated last December.
Are
you happy with your job/life? Why (not)?
Frankly speaking, I’m so happy and surprised, too.
I wasn’t sure of how efficient and significant the
Master of MiNE would be until I got into the market and
experienced the importance of having the backgrounds I passed
through during the MiNE classes. It is amazing having knowledge
of every latest technology subject that plays a fundamental
role nowadays.
What
did MiNE teach you that you now use?
MiNE wanted to ensure that it was graduating Network Economy
managers and by now I feel like a real successful manager,
the way I deal with people, the way I see things, the way
I solve problems and finally the way I analyze and achieve
job tasks: I didn’t waste my time taking this Master
degree.
What
other important lessons have you learnt in life since leaving
MiNE?
Never stick to just one side of a concern, always look at
everything the other way around, and do not judge anything
unless you have tried it.
Do
you have any advice for potential MiNE candidates?
Guys, it is just there, find a way to get over and join
it, you won’t regret it, I assure you. Being a follower
all the time won’t add anything to your career like
being a leader (manager).
