University of Strathclyde
speciality: Management

Strathclyde university is one of the reputable university in Glasgow. Being a part of this university makes me feel proud as a student. Over the years, the marketing department has taught its students different aspects of marketing such as the 4P’s, digital marketing, consumer behaviour that shaped my perception about marketing. The University has provided with real life assignments which helped as a student to gain understanding about the topic and how the theory would be applied outside of university. From year 1 to year 3 , I am able to apply the concept of marketing in my day to day life and would love to share this knowledge with others as well.

Starting university in September 2020 was obviously a very interesting time with both the student and university having to improvise to try and replicate the Uni experience online with there being no in person classes, I believe in the most part, this was done well considering the circumstances with the university offering as much as they possibly could in terms of help and support.

Now in my Third year and finally stepping foot into a classroom, I would argue that this has been the most challenging aspect of my University journey so far. Although I have enjoyed and been impressed by the quality of in person classes given by the Uni so far, I feel as if more support and understanding could have been given to students who for the first time we’re stepping foot on campus. Support such as campus tours and a general understanding of the anxiety and pressure that will come with in-person exams, especially as it will be the first time for many for a while, would have improved the transitional period of returning to campus.

Overall, I have been pleased with my time at Strathclyde so far however I feel they could have been more understanding and offered better communication in a time that was hard for all.

Strathclyde University is overall a good option for many students looking to pursue a career in business and entrepreneurship, with their award-winning business school. The lecturers and tutors are very knowledgeable about, not only their course material but how their own life experience can help students make practical connections with the material. However, communication with the university staff overall can be difficult. Most subject departments will take up to 5 working days to answer queries, and the university’s student support and finance department take approximately 5 weeks to answer any queries.

The program is structured very well and having offline classes is an incredible advantage to increasing and improving your exposure. The business courses are vast and the provided course and faculties are perfect. The university provides excellent facilities and helps students by being available all day.

When I look at a new program, not only do I focus on the course itself, but also the people working in that specific environment. Applying for postgraduate studies in Strathclyde, I literally felt welcomed. The staff was patient enough to answer all the questions I had, and the genuine response I received made my decision a lot easier. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to reach out, I’m confident that they’ll answer you with the utmost sincerity. I invite you to come to Glasgow and explore the city together.
Peace and love.

The uni provides a good international outlook and a variety of subjects to study within the programme however I’m aware multiple other universities offer a year’s placement which then helps with employment prospects after your degree. This is one area Strathclyde was lacking in.
