Kryšpín
Deloitte AB (Audit & Assurance), Sweden
As a student of the MIFA Programme, I’ve been given an opportunity to go abroad and experience working full-time for an international audit firm in Sweden. During my internship, I was part of an audit team on several engagements in the financial services industry, which allowed me to learn from the experts in the field in the area of auditing, accounting, but also finance & management. Besides that, I’m extremely grateful for having the chance to live in a different country and thus grow not only professionally but also personally.
Nina
CA Advisory, Italy
During my master’s degree, I had the opportunity to spend 3,5 months on an Erasmus+ internship in Italy. I was working in an advisory company focusing on corporate finance, mainly financial models, business plans and valuation. I got to know a new culture, and amazing people, and learned a lot in the financial sector. My experience abroad was amazing, and I would highly recommend it to everyone.
Kess
PKF Malta, Malta
I enjoyed working for an accounting firm in Malta, a sunny paradise. My internship was six months long but went by in a flash. Before participating in the Erasmus+ program, I lacked confidence in my skill sets to be a productive team member. Still, because of this internship program, I can confidently say that my mindset about myself and my capabilities has done a 180º turn. I worked on various tasks ranging from audits to managerial accounting, onsite client visits, and article writing for local news outlets. I would recommend Malta and internships as a pivotal experience for a MIFA student’s education.

Niniko
FEP – University of Porto, Portugal
As a participant in the Master in Finance and Accounting Programme, I have been granted the opportunity to become a Double Degree student. My preference was driven by the University of Porto, which is one of the leading universities not only in Portugal but worldwide. I am beyond thankful that the Prague University of Economics and Business has given us the opportunity to deepen our horizons and experience a unique chance to live and study in a city rich in history and beauty.
Having the possibility of obtaining two master’s degrees within the same duration as one is a huge advantage. As a Double Degree student, I have been afforded a comprehensive and multidisciplinary education. This experience has fostered an open-minded attitude and provided the opportunity to immerse myself in a different cultural and academic environment. The Double Degree program is inherently challenging, necessitating a high level of dedication, organization, and commitment—skills that are highly valued by employers.
During my studies at the University of Porto, I have had the opportunity to deepen my knowledge in various disciplines, such as portfolio management, investment banking, data modelling, and risk management. This diversified academic exposure has significantly enriched my educational experience. Participating in this program has significantly expanded my social and professional networks, providing invaluable connections and opportunities for future endeavours. The University of Porto, with its esteemed academic reputation and dynamic learning environment, has been instrumental in my development as a well-rounded and competent professional.
