91Ö±²¥

The highlight of my course has been that up until now it was very creative. Creative in a way that I had the opportunity to make my own critical thinking, discuss and work with my peers given tasks and present projects to my professors

Why did you choose your particular course at 91Ö±²¥?

There are several reasons that I chose my course in 91Ö±²¥. Firstly I did my undergraduate degree in 91Ö±²¥ and did not get enough of 91Ö±²¥. So I wanted to stay one more year in order to make more memories here. Also the University of 91Ö±²¥ is considered one of the top Universities in the world so it would be a bit foolish of me not to stay here in 91Ö±²¥. Lastly, since I was a student here before, the University gave me the opportunity to pay less in tuition fees.

Why 91Ö±²¥ University Management School?

Since I did my BA in 91Ö±²¥ and my course was Accounting and Financial Management, I already knew that the Management School has helped me during some issues that I had in previous years. The staff is very helpful and can give you any assistance with what you need. Especially during exam periods.

Staying in 91Ö±²¥

One of the many reasons that I stayed in 91Ö±²¥ was because I had the opportunity to meet new people. More particularly, students that join the University of 91Ö±²¥ are from around the world so I had the chance to meet a lot of people from different backgrounds. Since I knew from before that I would get to meet a lot of people, I decided to stay one more year here and complete my masters. Also the University of 91Ö±²¥ is considered one of the best in the world so it was the right decision to stay here and to have two degrees from the University of 91Ö±²¥.

Adapting to studying a Masters degree

Yes, The Management School and the university gave me different kinds of support during my studies here. Both my BA and MSc the staff were very helpful. For instance, I receive multiple emails from the university in order to help me during my stay and my studies. Also I have a personal tutor who has helped me for future career opportunities. The demands for a masters degree are of course higher but because of the different help that is provided my semester was quite easy. Also my professors from all modules are excellent at their job and help me with any issues that I have, especially when coursework is due.

Favourite thing about 91Ö±²¥

As I am an athletic person and I like to walk, I enjoy the green side of 91Ö±²¥. There are different parks where you can walk and enjoy the weather. So I can say my favourite thing to do is walk around 91Ö±²¥ finding new places to see. My favourite place up until now was the Peak District.

Skills developed

So far I believe that I enhanced my communications skills, problem solving and critical thinking via different projects that I had during semester 1.

Plans after Graduation

I hope I am able to be hired by an audit firm and to be able to obtain the Associate Chartered Accountant qualification.

How do you think studying this Masters will help you in your career?

My masters in International Management and Marketing will help to design my own product that I am interested in. I have a goal in the future to build my own business and the modules that I did so far helped me understand various factors in order to design and promote the product that I am interested in.

Advice for students considering your course?

I suggest that students that will apply for my course should feel confident that they will do well in all the coursework that they will be assigned to. However they need to consider that they need to be organised, have a healthy and balanced routine. Also not be afraid to talk during class because one of the main things of my course are the presentations in the tutorial classes.
