“My study experience at MCAST through the Erasmus+ programme was truly rewarding. From the start, I felt welcomed and excited to be part of such a valuable opportunity.
The academic environment challenged me in new ways and allowed me to apply my business studies in an international context. One of the highlights was meeting students from different cultures, which broadened my perspective and led to lasting friendships.
Outside the classroom, I explored Malta, improved my English, and experienced its unique culture. It was a transformative journey that helped me grow both personally and professionally.”
