"To new students I would recommend that they learn new cultures and dare to take on new challenges."

Sun Jung Ahn arrived in Barcelona at the age of 18 from South Korea to study the Degree in Management of Technological Companies from La Salle-URL with a mention in Sports Management. During her stay, she lived with a local family in order to learn Catalan and Spanish, as the subjects of the degree are taught in English. This experience encouraged her to continue learning new cultures and, in her second year of studies, she decided to study an Erasmus course for one year in France. There, she started French classes and was able to work for EURO 2016 in Paris. She currently lives in Barcelona and works on the eSports company's eFootball.Pro project. We talked to her to learn about her experience.

Why did you decide to study the Degree of Management of Technological Companies at La Salle-URL?

 

How do you rate your experience on campus?

 

The Final Grade project has been rated as the best of your class.the cultural adaptation of the Korean players of FC Barcelona's La Masia, as it brought together two of my main interests: sport and culture. The cultural adaptation in Barcelona is a process that I have also experienced personally, including working on the project. I spoke in Korean with the players, in Spanish with the staff of La Masia and in English with my tutor, Chris Kennett. This allowed me to capture both my case and that of the Korean players.

 

How has your insertion into the world of work been?Sports Media & PR classes of the degree, I got to know Kerad Games. At the time, they needed help to conduct a Korean eSports market study for their new project, eFootball.Pro. That's how I started my new stage.

 

What would you recommend to future students?
