 Hi everyone, welcome to the BMU YouTube channel. My name is Denaze and today we'll be speaking with our Professor of Management, Faculty of Business Administration, Dr. Daniel Lund. Greetings, Professor. Thank you for your time for this interview. First, we would like to start with a brief introduction. Please share your educational and professional background. Okay, I'm originally from Canada. I did an MBA at York University in Toronto. I did a PhD at Griffith University in Australia and I'm currently working on a doctorate degree in education with Johns Hopkins University in the US. How long have you been in Uzbekistan and how do you find it? I've been in Uzbekistan a little bit more than a year. It's been a wonderful experience. The country has a huge emphasis on education and you can see it all over the country. And the university here, BMU, very skilled people that working with, so it's been a great experience so far. So as you have already spent some time here in Uzbekistan and find already know about other universities, could you please share what sets Bridge Management University apart from the rest? One of the things with British Management University that you can see, first when you walk around, you see the fabulous campus. And I don't think there's any other campus in the country that comes close to what has been put together here. And also the faculty, staff and the students, there's just a great energy and a great sense of future and working hard. So really, I'm excited to be here. So what program and subject do you teach here at BMU? Yeah, the moment I'm the head of graduate programs in executive education, so I'm teaching in the MSc Master of Science program, teaching strategic management and communications for managers. What kinds of things can your students do after they graduate? That's a great question. What can students do after they graduate? A lot of that is up to the students themselves. So a degree only gives you a piece of paper and some knowledge. But it's your own personality, it's your own relationships and it's your own energy for going out and trying to generate jobs and find a job. That's what's really important for students. What advice will you give to the freshman students who are applying to the university this year? Another great question. For freshman students, I would say study. Do the readings. If a teacher assigns 20, 30 pages to read in a textbook, actually do the readings. Read it twice, read it three times through. That's where the greatest strength comes often for students is to do the readings. Thank you.
