It was a matter of when and where, not if. I didn\u2019t take advantage of the great opportunity that exchange offers you in my undergraduate degree, so I knew I had to when I started the Master of Management program. Experiencing education in a different country has so much value not only educationally, but personally. You get to meet students from all over the world, to experience a new education system that differs from the one you are used to, and you get to explore! The travel really excites me &#8211; I have an insatiable wanderlust.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The MM program offers a variety of summer exchanges that vary in lengths from two to eight weeks. A few cities include: Cologne, Copenhagen, Shanghai, and L<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">ondon. Choosing where to apply could be the hardest part for some! For me, because I have already spent a few months in Asia and only weeks in Europe, I wanted to head back to the motherland of croissants, macarons, and cassoulet!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The one potential negative to going on exchange is it may have an effect on your job hunt by extending it longer than you may prefer. This is a risk I am willing to take because I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ll ever have this amazing experience at my fingertips again. In the end, I get out what I put in to my job hunt. So I will be working extra hard, knowing I get to spend June here:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_242\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/saudermmstudentlife\/files\/2014\/02\/5978996674_bf6a50a828_b1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-242\" class=\"size-full wp-image-242\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/saudermmstudentlife\/files\/2014\/02\/5978996674_bf6a50a828_b1.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/saudermmstudentlife\/files\/2014\/02\/5978996674_bf6a50a828_b1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/saudermmstudentlife\/files\/2014\/02\/5978996674_bf6a50a828_b1-300x95.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-242\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nice, France<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><em>Source:\u00a0http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kpsiu\/5978996674\/<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Until next post,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Maddie<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/maddieholeksa<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For me, doing an exchange was a non-negotiable.
