Our student stories

Chelsea Abcede

What I love about the Business Masters programme ... is the chance to learn from our professors who are experts in their field; learn from their practical experiences.

I love how they challenge us not to just absorb what they teach, but also to transfer those skills and that knowledge by writing about it and discussing it from our own point of view and our own understanding. I love how they encourage us to think for ourselves.

You get an opportunity to work with professors who not only have a strong academic profile, but also have a good deal of industry exposure.

I got to work with students who come from different cultural, educational and professional backgrounds, which I believe is a personal learning experience in itself.

The programme helped me to further develop myself as an individual. Besides gaining a lot of useful knowledge in management and international business, I have dramatically improved my writing, presentation, teamwork and leadership skills. I believe that the opportunities that you could have after finishing this degree are countless.

This is a great programme to help me establish my career. Giving presentations to the class helped me improve my English and gave me a lot of confidence in public speaking. The programme gave me a qualification in accounting and opportunity to work with people from all over the world. I think this experience with diversity was the key to getting my current position.
