Alumni Spotlight - Pius Binder, BBA '12

Pius Binder, 2012 graduate of the Bachelor of Business Administration in Tourism and Hotel Management, is continuing to pursue higher education in an elite program. Due to his success at MU, he enrolled in the CEMS Master in International Management at the Vienna University of Economics & Business.

He shared his thoughts on how his Modul University education was a good choice for his future: 

''I feel I have been really lucky, not only being able to attend Modul University but also to benefit from its dense network. Since I graduated in 2012, I have interned at companies like BNP Paribas, and KPMG, and also at a start up called TourRadar. I gained the right skills for working at such companies at Modul University.

Before I decided to go to MU, I never thought about working for such companies, since my thought was that Modul University was primarily a place were people can gain the knowledge to become hotel managers, restaurant managers, or just great people working the hospitality industry.

Nevertheless, the slogan says: "Expanding Horizons". Throughout my studies and after I have benefited from both from a network of great students and the support from the easy approachable faculty and staff. I am now happy that Modul University allowed me to expand my horizons further.

I am sure that future Modulians will benefit even more, since the network of alumni as well as current students is growing more than ever. This is a great thought, since it also means that the students who are at MU now and future students will find even a better environment for expanding their horizons.''
