Student stories

The programme offered an incredible balance between analytical thinking and creative expression. I particularly valued how the course encouraged us to examine texts from multiple perspectives whilst developing our own unique voice as writers. 

My undergraduate degree at Surrey opened the door to opportunities within the university, including my current role at the Centre for Britain in Europe, thanks to the connections I built within the department. 

The programme's comprehensive curriculum, combined with its practical approach, provided me with the strategic skills and business acumen necessary to excel in a new professional landscape.

Since graduating from the Surrey MBA, I have upscaled my career from working as a Client Success Officer in London to Commercial Executive in Kuwait. Working for some of the biggest MNCs with the presence in about 40+ countries, the MBA has certainly helped me to leverage my knowledge and expertise to be successful at my role with a global outreach.

Passionate about building high-performing teams and embedding integrity, collaboration, and sustainability at the core of global energy trading.

Excited and proud to be joining the SurreyLeaders network. I loved my time at University of Surrey and I am looking forward to heading back there soon.

I'm thrilled to be joining this network (SurreyLeaders) of talent and professionalism, and looking forward to taking a wider role in the University of Surrey.

The best thing was the support I received from professors, staff, friends, and even local people in Surrey. I was a bit scared and nervous at the beginning as it was my first time living abroad. However, those feelings soon faded because many people were willing to help and offer advice on any topic.

[There is] a lot of uncertainty in Sustainability, especially now. Technology can bring clarity, particularly when informed by subject matter expertise.
