Stefano Fanelli’s experience in the Ulysseus AI for Business Transformation Joint Master

Stefano Fanelli is a second-year student of the Artificial Intelligence for Business Transformation Joint Master Degree, a flagship joint programme of Ulysseus European University. With an academic and professional background in Economics, supply chain and digital marketing, Stefano joined the programme seeking advanced knowledge in artificial intelligence combined with an international and collaborative learning experience. His journey has taken him from his home country of Italy to Finland, Austria and Spain, reflecting the truly European dimension of the degree.

Throughout the programme, Stefano has studied at Haaga-Helia University of Applied Sciences in Helsinki, MCI Innsbruck and the University of Seville. He highlights the added value of learning in different academic systems and cultural contexts, which has strengthened his adaptability, communication and transversal skills. He also emphasises the strong commitment of lecturers across partner universities, who share a common vision of building a European University based on collaboration, innovation and long-term impact.

For Stefano, the UlysseusAI Joint Master has been not only an academic pathway in a highly topical field at the intersection of artificial intelligence and business, but also a profound personal and intercultural experience. His message to future students underlines the importance of embracing European opportunities that foster openness, shared values and professional growth.

A new application period for the Ulysseus AI for Business Transformation Joint Master will open in summer 2026, offering prospective students the chance to join this unique joint programme.
