Milano,
the place to be.
The MCF propelled my knowledge and grasp of Corporate Finance to a very high
level. Coupling this with living in Milano and meeting lifelong friends made this
experience one the best in my life: it groomed me into the well-rounded person I am,
and secured a position in an industry I wanted and enjoy too. To me, this is a success!

IV SDA BOCCONI | MASTER IN CORPORATE FINANCE MCF
There are several aspects that I appreciated about the MCF. For example, the
streamlined structure of the program, which is designed to maximize performance
and the study of highly complex subjects. Each topic was addressed in a deep
and detailed way, tying theoretical learning to a good amount of practical
exercises. In one year, I became a fast-grown young professional.
