Hear from our students and alumni

“The MBA has allowed me to support the directors of the business on levels that I wouldn’t have been able to do before. It’s made me a more confident speaker and a more confident writer. The time I have spent in class with the fellow cohort of people, who are from different backgrounds and different industries, has really allowed me to grow as a person, grow my network, and continue to give back to the business.”
John Benfield, Business Development Manager, Horizonscan Ltd

“Studying part-time while working allowed me to apply each module directly to my industry, enhancing my reports, essays and presentations – and supporting my achievements in the workplace. The MBA has not only expanded my knowledge and confidence but also helped me build a robust international network that I rely on for support now and in the future.”
Barry O’Donoghue, Head of Business, Jaguar Land Rover, Barretts Kent

“Initially plagued by imposter syndrome, I questioned whether the MBA was the right path for a healthcare professional and whether I could manage working and studying. But, with each module, I discovered how business principles could transform healthcare delivery. As I look to the future, I aim to use my enhanced leadership capabilities to drive sustainable innovation in healthcare while nurturing the next generation of healthcare leaders.”
Caroline Knott, Clinical Safety Officer and Digital Transformation Lead, NHS
