Last exam in Corvinus and MITIM program
I can't believe it, but today I will have my last business exam during MITIM program. The whole thing has gone by so quickly! During the spring I still need to pass one Russian course and do the thesis, but otherwise my studies are done. Sweet.

Pleaaaase forgive me!
Dear Ms. Blog,
I have been mistreating you lately and I am sorry for that. I know that any amount of explanations will not ease the situation and you have the right to feel hurt because of my ignorance. However, I want to shed a little light about the happenings of last few weeks to you. Perhaps you will then find it easier to forgive me.
About two weeks ago I welcomed 3 of my MITIM-colleaques from Finland for a 5 day visit. I had lots of fun with them. We saw many of the cool places here in Budapest, such as Gellert hill, Szechenyi spa, Terror háza, Szimpla and so on. Going around the city for many days left me of course exhausted and trailing in my studies. I managed to catch on during the weekend and last week I have been again kinda busy with the schoolwork - we have had group meetings with the guys during the last 3 days and we've spent a lot of time on our presentation and case. Luckily, those are now ready and just need to be printed and delivered.
Besides the school work, my time has been spent on studying Hungarian by myself. I am making progress, but not quickly enough. I need to put more effort in producing text and especially SPEAKING. It will be Tarzan-language, but that step just needs to be taken.
Forgetting the schoolwork and other stuff like that, I have been just enjoying life here in Budapest. I really like this city and feel great in here. I am really happy. Of course, because I am a sort of evil mastermind, I have come up with some more ideas/things for the future to gain world domination. Perhaps I'll tell you more about those later.
To conclude, I am sorry that I have been ignoring you dear Ms. Blog. I will do my best not to abandon you in the future for long time periods. I hope you can forgive me.
With love,
Joona

New structure for MITIM program
I just stumbled upon on the new structure of MITIM program, which applies to students starting their journey in MITIM next fall. It can be seen here.
There are some changes in the courses, few are added and some are taken away. Examples of courses that wont exist to new students are Supply and Innovation management, Economics of innovation. Some new courses are Organizational behavior, Strategic management and Business processes management and information technologies.
In a way I like the new core courses, those are some of the topics that we did not cover in extent this year. Also, the structure seems to be a bit less messy and the topics more concrete in a way. Well, at least from course name point of view.... I am curious to hear/read about the experiences of new MITIM students on how those courses pan out.
