Great Experience

LSE is a great place to create life-long connections and friends. There's a certain sense of community that is special to the university. The staff are hands-on and approachable. The facilities are modern and well-equipped.

A Future with more cheers!

Reading about the school, I was impressed by the attention they claim to give the students, their ranking amongst top universities and the business school facilitators plus the partnering bodies. I was also intrigued by the data lab and how their research are always towards the betterment of society and humanity. I was not shocked to resume school and see all these, first hand; I am proud to be part of NUBS story! The classrooms are standard and environmentally friendly, the campus is aesthetically beautiful and has a story to tell. The reception is almost like a friendly work station and I love how my desk replicates an office setting making me feel at home and not like a child resuming school. I resumed late and had my supervisors and students helping me catch up with a friendly team that I could reach out to without fear or remorse. It sure is a great place to school and work.

Student in 2013

I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
