“Second University Degree”

Business Studies, 2000
Overall
When I moved to Canada, I had to invest in a second University degree (my first being Bulgarian language and European literature from Sofia University in Sofia, Bulgaria) in order to further my chances for full integration.
At the time UQAM offered a cumulative Bachelor - with the possibility to choose 3 disciplines. My choice was narrowed to Administration, Finance and French Language.
Although this choice help me in finding an interesting position in one of the biggest international companies and later moving to the USA to its head office, I wold recommend to choose a discipline that is associated with a specific internationally recognized job.

Pros
Location in downtown Montreal with exit to the Metro. Disciplines mainly in art; excellent student oriented governmental subsidies.
Cons
Large groups in certain disciplines.
