These extracurricular activities are as important to their professional and personal development as their program is, and one opportunity that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/business-school\/programs\/masters\/master-in-finance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Master in Finance<\/a> students have is to visit Ghana, a growing financial hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In collaboration with local financial NGOs, the trip gives students the tools to help these NGOs flourish and succeed in different areas of the Ghanaian financial landscape. Master in Finance students are given the opportunity to put their learnings into practice while driving positive social impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, Master in Finance students collaborated with <a href=\"https:\/\/mannaprojectsfngo.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Manna Projects<\/a>, a microfinance NGO that focuses on offering microloans to female entrepreneurs in Ghana. Students played a key role in transforming Manna Projects\u2019 business and financial frameworks, contributing to the ultimate goal of expanding their outreach and streamlining their processes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We spoke to Master in Finance students <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/oliverjhaller\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oliver Haller<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/tobias-van-henten-107a441b5\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Tobias Van Henten<\/a> to hear about their experiences in the exciting African country.

Instead, he saw it as an opportunity to help people and to visit a financial hub that he otherwise would not have had the chance to visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, the networking aspect of the trip should not be underestimated. Tobias noted the connections he made with other students on the trip: \u201cI have made new friends and become closer with the people I was already friends with. Being together for eight days really bonds people.\u201d Oliver shared a similar idea as the group is \u201cthrown into a diverse and new environment and is experiencing it for the first time together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns left-image is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"we-re-proud-of-our-dynamic-program-alumni-who-have-landed-roles-that-earn-them-an-average-annual-salary-of-37-209\">The trip\u2019s cultural immersion was also an important part of the trip, allowing students to integrate with the local community.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Making-a-difference-with-the-Master-in-Finance-trip-to-Ghana1.jpg\" alt=\"Making a difference with the Master in Finance trip to Ghana\" class=\"wp-image-31084\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Making-a-difference-with-the-Master-in-Finance-trip-to-Ghana1.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Making-a-difference-with-the-Master-in-Finance-trip-to-Ghana1-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Making-a-difference-with-the-Master-in-Finance-trip-to-Ghana1-150x97.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/Making-a-difference-with-the-Master-in-Finance-trip-to-Ghana1-585x379.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Tobias shared that: \u201cPersonally, it was the first time that I visited another country to do some charity work, which was an amazing experience. I think that everyone that has the chance to participate in it should do so, because it really opens your eyes to how tough so many people have it in other parts of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The trip did also come with some challenges. Oliver pointed out that: \u201cSome parts of the trip can be challenging, such as the long and bumpy car rides and hot days outdoors. However, if you can handle it, it will be one of the most rewarding experiences you&#8217;ll ever have. The benefits are plentiful: you&#8217;ll have the opportunity to fully immerse yourself in a new culture, observe a microfinance institution in a high-risk market, and witness some of Ghana&#8217;s breathtaking wildlife and scenery.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking back on their time in Ghana, both Oliver and Tobias wholeheartedly recommend the experience. Tobias highlighted that it was \u201ca great experience, an amazing trip, great fun, it looks good on your r\u00e9sum\u00e9, and it allows you to help those who need it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Master in Finance trip to Ghana reflects both IE University\u2019s and the program\u2019s commitment to broadening students\u2019 horizons. Learning opportunities are everywhere and this hands-on international experience will add value to every participant\u2019s professional profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Unlike other institutions that focus heavily on theoretical coursework, IE University prioritizes interactive learning experiences that encourage students to think critically and collaboratively.
