Studying at Durham University has been nothing short of a transformative journey. I would highly recommend studying at Durham University Business School. The combination of academic rigour, supportive community, and access to world-class resources makes it an exceptional place to pursue higher education and advance your career.

My course was interesting and challenging. I will cherish the community that I have met here. I was very happy with my decision to attend Durham University Business School and would recommend any student looking for high quality education and a wonderful student experience to choose Durham.

One aspect of studying at Durham that I enjoy is the variety of work I have had. I never found myself doing the same thing, and whilst this range was challenging, it also spurred me on to work hard and allowed me to enjoy the course more. The Business School provides lovely study areas, whilst also having a canteen allowing students to spend long study days there without the trouble of moving around to different buildings.

I was particularly drawn to apply for the MSc Economics course at Durham as it allowed me to indulge my passion for the environment and sustainability whilst affording the flexibility to select modules covering a variety of different economic fields.

I chose to study at Durham University Business School because of its fantastic reputation and wealth of optional modules that I would be able to choose from. I really enjoyed being taught by experts in their field and studying alongside like-minded and hardworking individuals. In September 2022 I will begin my career as a consultant at Avantage Reply – who specialise in financial services consulting.

The careers team was there for me right from the start, helping me develop a strong resume assisting me with interview prep. I really appreciated this as I was seeking employment out of the UK (in Canada) and was pleasantly surprised to know that the careers team was well versed to help out even with matters concerning employment in Canada. Overall, Durham University provided me with an experience of a lifetime.

I chose Durham as it is one of the best business schools in the UK, with a vast research centre and a good support network. The modules pushed me beyond my existing knowledge and challenged me, enabling me to broaden my economic knowledge and acquire advanced skills to set me apart. Following my Masters I will be joining a finance graduate scheme.
