Hear from some of our MBA students:

Matt


“One of the things that has really helped me during the MBA, as well as the toolkit of skills that I’ve learned and the information I’ve learned, is actually working out how that fits into the global pattern of where we are in the world.”

Charlie


“I’m interested in governance, especially the sustainability agenda, so that’s what I’d like to work on more going forward, and I believe the things that I’ve learnt so far on the MBA have given me the toolkit to be able to do that really effectively.”

Nate


“Starting the MBA actually helped me to break out the fixed way of my thinking and to consider about my previous life, actually. What I have learned is not only the knowledge from different subjects, but also from my MBA cohort. It’s a way of thinking from the people and the different cultural backgrounds.”
