There has been a major increase in the number of African students that have enrolled in the last year but many of us have failed to establish a sense of community amongst ourselves. I can say that Uni life has not been easy to navigate and not having a village of people who are like me has been tough so I can only imagine what someone else is going through. I think the Uni needs to integrate an ACS for students like me, to know that they have people who they can rely on as well as provide an escape from what can be an overwhelming work life
View moreI have had a very pleasant experience of this university thus far. I have completed all of my modules with the exception being my Dissertation which I am currently working on. I would have liked a bit more guidance on networking with people in the industry throughout the process.
View moreThis university has state-of-the-art facilities as it’s based at the Etihad Stadium (Manchester) and Wembley Stadium (London). If you are looking for a career in the sports business, this is definitely for you! Courses range from finance and law to media and marketing! It’s also a great way to gain experience within the industry there are jobs in sports specific to UCFB students and I have managed to already get a lot of experience.
Getting a degree here is great, but top students make the most of their time here and get involved with enrichment sessions such as public speaking and guest speakers.
It is great and friendly and easy to make friends as you all have a sport in common! Being a female at this uni, I hope to inspire many more females to attend.
Having only just completed my first year with UCFB, I can safely say that this has been the best and most beneficial year of education for me in my life. From the faculty to the students to the countless opportunities that are waiting for you to grab hold of, UCFB is the place to attend if you are wanting a career within the sports industry.
View moreGreat idea for a place to specialise into the sports industry and prepare a student going into this business. Classes are smaller, which allows to really build a connection with lecturers, improving both your learning opportunities and your professional network. UCFB does well to provide accommodation, as well as unique programs that give invaluable insight into the industry. However, due to the fact that it’s still not a well-known place, it lacks the reputation of bigger, more traditional sports institutions and universities. UCFB can do better to support students when it comes to employability opportunities (for example, I believe they can help more individually to students to find a good-matching job, instead of leaving the students deal by themselves after graduation). Overall, a different approach with many positives and a couple of downsides that future students should be aware of.
