Great job
As an educator in Finance and International Entrepreneurship you apply your expertise in Management Accounting, Managerial Finance, international business (expansion) and you link this to investment decisions of international companies. You do this in project-based settings in which students must take the lead in their learning process. Your tasks and responsibilities encompass various aspects including, among others, curriculum development, teaching, and student mentorship during internships. This variety of tasks highlights the multifaceted nature of the role of an educator in the International Business programme. This means that in this role you:
- Develop, teach and assess subjects related to Finance and Entrepreneurship for interdisciplinary projects with an international scope.
- Mentor students during international internships and provide feedback (including formal assessments) to students’ work.
- Fulfill roles in academic committees that safeguard the quality of our programme such as the education committee and the examination board.
- Take the initiative in learning about blended learning, technological developments (such as A.I.), and data utilization.
- Maintain professional relationships with industry partners for our projects and internship opportunities.
