Student stories

Management masters student Don Wong came from the University of Surrey where he studied Media and Communication as an undergraduate. In his final term at Surrey, he had the opportunity to visit the School of Knowledge and School of Knowledge Economy and Management (SKEMA) campus in Paris. Starting in 2023, the Surrey Business School and SKEMA will join forces to offer a dual masters in Management to their Management students, accredited by both institutions.

Armed with a first-class Business with Law degree from Hertfordshire University, Mariana Duarte joined Surrey to study for a masters in Human Resource Management. Here she tells us why she chose Surrey and her experience of being a postgraduate student.

I absolutely love the course. Due to the smaller cohort size we have excellent support from the staff and we all get to know each other well.

I have loved the course and feel I have learnt so much; the ability to mix with students who work in a multitude of settings has been so beneficial, the lectures have been stimulating and class discussion has been rich, enlightening and memorable.

The course offers flexibility around the optional modules, so I’ve been able to match to my career interests and aspirations.
