University of Bolton students on Postgraduate study say:
“Throughout my time at the university, I was full supported and encouraged by all the staff and lecturers and even though some subjects were new and challenging at times, I was always able to ask for support and was taught to think at a higher level in order to approach subjects from a broader perspective and create solutions. The MBA degree has enabled me to look at the business world from a different perspective and has allowed me to broaden my horizons and given me the confidence to start my own management consultancy business.” Omar Anwar, MBA Masters of Business Administration.
“I have extremely pleasant and memorable experiences of my time on the programme and the knowledge I acquired has served to shape the trajectory of my research career. The academic staff were very friendly, approachable and always responsive to my academic and related needs and it was a pleasure working with and developing lasting relationships with students from diverse range of national and cultural contexts.” Munmun Azad, MSc International Management.
The university has completely changed my life. I was working in retail when I enrolled and now I’m in a job that I’m passionate about.” Andy Platt, MSc Psychology.
