ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É Business School Facilities
0:06 Well the staff are so friendly and accessible I knew I could go to them with any issues I
0:11 had or any questions about assignments it was a really relaxed atmosphere and relationship
0:16 that I had with them and I knew that they cared about what I was interested in as well.
0:21 I made the most out of the societies because when you come to University for the first time it was
0:26 nice to know that there was just so many different opportunities available there was a running
0:30 club, we would run around ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É sometimes in Treborth and that just offered the opportunity
0:36 to get out and about meet people again. I'm making friends now that I've made for life.

Graduate Profile Margaret Cowan
I am certain I would not be where I am today if I had not studied at ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É. Without the dedicated support and encouragement from my lecturers, I would not have pushed myself to apply for a master’s and would most likely have settled for a job I wasn’t satisfied with. Instead, I completed my MSc and started a position I am incredibly passionate about straight out of university.
Graduate Profile George Krokos
I choose ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É due to the ranking of the Financial Economics course, the syllabus, and the location of the University. I grew up in the centre of Athens and thus wanted to move to a more remote and smaller town. ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É's located in one of the most beautiful parts of the UK, that coupled with the university’s student satisfaction statistics made me take the plunge and I must say I never regretted it!
Graduate Profile Salima Behilil
The nurturing nature and unwavering support I received from my lecturers in ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É Business School during my amazing three year experience has instilled into me a level of confidence that I have since encompassed into all aspects of my life.
Graduate Profile Bogdan Pop
ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É was the foundation to my professional career. I learnt a lot about Banking and Finance and developed a discipline which was very helpful in my career. Participating in course-related activities and competitions gave me an excellent opportunity to improve my skills and differentiate myself from others when applying for jobs.
Graduate Profile Ahmed Dhaif
My experience at BBS continues to shape my life on many levels. I have come to understand more about the academic culture, diversity, and most importantly having a sense of purpose in life, and this is on-going and shall only be improved in the years to come.
Employability at ÑÇÖÞÉ«°É Business School
Employability is key in everything we do here at the Business School. From helping you with your CV to developing skills to interview outside your course there are plenty of extracurricular activities to make sure you prepared for the world of work.
0:00 Hi I'm Natalia Ehenulo, I'm from Reading. A lot of the exams obviously written and
0:06 you know for me particularly we're doing either equations
0:09 or we're doing essays but the lecturers also take the time to really go through
0:14 software systems that you will do eventually when you come out even if we don't do it in the
0:19 exam for example stator and Excel we can't do those in the exams but they think about the long
0:24 term, the longevity of our skills as well and they make sure we do that we've done it in assignments
0:30 I know for credit risk analytics we have to use a Excel to calibrate the Merton model I know
0:37 for research methods and financial econometrics we've also had to use Stata and these are really
0:42 employable skills. I know when I was looking for jobs outside of University that a lot of companies
0:49 ask us to have proficiency in Excel or python r or some sort of data software and having those skills
0:56 already enabled in us really makes it easier to fill out those applications and meet the skill
1:02 requirements that employers are looking for. It definitely did help and it's definitely something
1:08 that I'm glad that I've had the opportunity to do whilst being here.
