Learning through business
Our students have many opportunities to interact with business leaders, gain work experience and work on specific company projects while studying with us.
Some of our degrees have an integrated placement year while MSc and MBA students have the opportunity to partner with a company for their final management project or dissertation.
Our courses include guest lectures delivered by business leaders from companies such as Rolls-Royce, Boots, Deloitte, Arla Foods, Ernst and Young and L’Oreal and institutions such as the Bank of England and Bombay Stock Exchange.
It was a pleasure to provide a short insight into the world of Supply Chains. Transportation and logistics is confronting immense change - new technology, new market entrants, new customer expectations and new business models. For me, its really important for students to access first-hand experiences and insights into contemporary practice.
Experienced business mentors can help you with one-to-one advice and guidance, while our Professors of Practice share their extensive knowledge and experience with you.
We also have a network of Entrepreneurs in Residence, who provide insights and support for aspiring entrepreneurs.

I was really pleased to share my views with students regarding the impact of the pandemic and resulting lockdown on a company like Enterprise. I also gave my reflection on my personal approach to management and how that will now be changed forever, as a result of the legacy effect of such an event in the world of work.
Business Practice Week was by far one of my favourite parts of the fall semester. I loved the exposure to different industries.
