We were delighted to visit Hanken School of Economics and talk with Anders Löflund, professor of finance, and the head of department of Financial Economics and Statistics and his students to know more about their experience with Invest for Excel®.
Hanken is one of the leading internationally accredited universities with over a hundred years of experience in education and research in economics and business administration. It offers academic programmes on all levels (BSc, MSc and PhD) at two locations – Helsinki and Vaasa.
Invest for Excel software has been introduced into the study program in 2011, since then it earned extremely positive feedback from the professor and the students:
“In my opinion, Invest for Excel was a refreshing addition to our Capital Budgeting course. It allowed us to mix practice with theory, which we don’t get to do all that much in the early stages of our degree. The software itself was relatively easy to understand after an introduction session. I definitely appreciated the opportunity to learn something new and valuable that can help me in my future studies and career. Therefore, I can recommend Invest for Excel for other courses as well.” – says Nora Holtari, Hanken student.
“I wanted my students to use a real business tool to learn capital budgeting. Case studies built in Invest for Excel help to understand how theoretical knowledge is applied in practice.” – underlines Anders Löflund.
