To be the Pioneer of Life Journey
I would like to share about the considerate thoughts before choosing FISF EMF, but the truth is, fate had a bigger role. I was sponsored to exchange in a Shanghai start-up during my time in university, but family complications altered my path. The following year, I came across FISF EMF as I was searching for a master’s education. The Fudan motto “自由而无用”, resonated with me deeply. I believe that most students did not choose to ascend the education ladder just to fit an expectation or to be molded according to standard societal norms. We believed in our own potential. FISF being a new campus, has the making of a start-up. As the pioneers, we can shape our own education and our next journey.
While deciding between schools, it is also important to consider the location of one’s future workplace. China is the only country safe from COVID-19. Furthermore, Shanghai is also rising to become the leading financial center of Asia. Studying in Shanghai puts me in a good position to search for jobs. Lastly, the staff from FISF are very attentive and pleasant to work with. The admissions officer will patiently assist you in preparing admission materials, remind you of deadlines, and answer your questions. My application process was smooth and professional.
For the Next Two Years
I am really looking forward to starting on this new journey with the class. I am hoping to gain professional insights and lasting bonds from this experience. Perhaps I will also look to travel around China – for example, taking the train along the borders of Russia, visiting the Potala Palace in Tibet, and tasting the amazing food different provinces have to offer. I believe this will be a challenging two years where we must balance work and study, but this experience will be very rewarding.
