Hungarians Beyond the Borders Scholarship
For further information, please email me, Chris Ball at Christopher.Ball@Quinnipiac.edu
This is a scholarship program designed for Hungarians living in the countries neighboring Hungary to come for 1 year to complete their MBA at Quinnipiac. Currently we are focusing on Hungarians in Romania and working with the Sapientia University.
Our first student in the program, Blanka Balázs, arrived for the 2008/2009 academic year. She has a background in Economics and Management from the Sapientia University. A recent graduate from the QU MBA program, Blanka currently works full time as a co-op at United Technologies Power in South Windsor, CT. Previously, she interned for Covalence S.A. in Switzerland.
