Student stories

I loved my time at the University of Surrey. The placement year was a game-changer, giving me hands-on experience and a head start post graduation. I made some life long friends and would recommend the University to everyone

After completing two degrees at Surrey, this highly successful graduate now lives and works in New York.

I cherish the time I spent at the University of Surrey. I was able to form deep friendships, challenge myself academically, and create a solid foundation for my career.

I chose to study MSc Management because of its amazing modules like consulting and capstone projects, and the opportunity to be a part of an industrial placement year. The course helped me develop real-world business skills, from strategy to leadership. 

I knew that to transition from being purely operational to taking on more senior leadership responsibilities, I needed to develop my leadership skills and understand broader business concepts. Within 2 months of achieving the Surrey EMBA I was promoted to Head of Operations.

The Surrey MBA was a turning point for me. It taught me how to think like a leader, understand business strategies, and connect technology with real-world business challenges.
