They provide quality education

I overall liked the quality of education which includes projects, assignments and levels of exams. Furthermore, teachers are really nice and always willing to help students.
However, one thing I would recommend is that electives should be introduced in this course as that would really help in giving a proper direction to one’s career. Secondly, internships should also be included in the module as are really helpful in getting a job.

Loved my master

Beautiful campus in a great location! Everything at London Business School is perfect I couldn’t be more happy than I am now. At the London business school, you receive outstanding support from the professors. Teachers are highly involved and if you score high in a subject you will be invited to interview in a related top tier company. My strategy professor helped me secure a summer internship in Kearney’s London Office. Also, everyone is so friendly and the LBS is very powerful. You can easily find an alumni that is willing to help you you.

Challenging and International

The Master in Management at RSM is always among the top ranking programs. If you want to learn in-depth knowledge across all the business areas, this is the perfect opportunity. One of the requirements to enter is to never had studied business before. Which means that you only study with people with non-business backgrounds. This makes it great as you learn from the very beginning and all students have different backgrounds; engineering, psychology, politics, etc. In only one year, I really managed to learn quite well the different areas of business including finance, accounting, analytics, and marketing, among others. However, because it is only one year, the program is very (very) challenging and fast paced. There are many deadlines, group and individual projects, exams, and thesis. You really need to be up to date to keep up with everything that is going on. Teachers have impressing backgrounds and are always willing to help however they can. Career prospects after this program are wide and top, it opens many doors. Although it was tough, it was a great experience in which I met many people and really prepared me well for my current job.

Cultural experience

I have met the most competent and diverse batch in this school. These people not only thrive on their own but also makes sure that you are doing it with them. The professors will take your had and walk you through all milestones and make sure you are not left behind. I have found their extracurriculars extremely engaging. There was always a room to have social life after academic life. The only hindrance is the location of the school, it is slightly outside city and living in city is expensive.
