Business School Student Testimonial - Sameera Simjee

Here is a student case study or testimonial if you please. Sameera Simjee an MSc student was asked to talk about her year with us - why she joined the programme and how has she benefited doing the programme.

I decided to pursue an MSc at Loughborough University Business School because it has a very good reputation and because it was one of the only top universities offering business-related master's courses for non-business graduates.

I chose the Business School and the MSc in Marketing and Management because it was the only programme that offered a balance between the two, which was what I was after. At that juncture I wasn't quite sure if I wanted to pursue marketing or management as a career, and the Loughborough MSc was one of the only programmes that I could develop the way I wanted to. And I ended up realising that I want to pursue a career on the management side.

The university is great. I loved being here for three years when I was doing my first degree, and so to stay here and do my master's was an easy decision. The lectures were very good -- the standard of teaching was first-rate, the subjects were very relevant and up to date and the lecturers were approachable.
