Student review [#24266] for Business Management with Placement
at University of Brighton - UoB

I selected UOB for numerous reasons. Firstly, I loved Brighton and its accepting, open feel, but in terms of the university, and course, it offered amazing study abroad opportunities. Year 1 was a great introduction to the basics of business; I loved being thrown into learning- so much so, that I became an International Business ambassador for prospective students. As I progressed through the 4-year course, the options available to me became more specific, therefore allowing me to tailor my learning experience to my career interests and goals. In my third year, I got accepted into the only Australian study abroad space, sending me off to Adelaide, SA, to continue learning. This hugely pushed me out of my comfort zone, whilst teaching me different learning practices and broadening my horizons. Sadly, during my last year of studying, COVID-19 hit, and this impacted my view of my final year. Obviously, this was no fault of the university, and the support we were given was still substantial, with zoom calls to teachers and constant online support. Although finishing your degree in your Mum’s spare room/office really is slightly underwhelming, I feel like I obtained a well-rounded and unforgettable university experience along the way.
