2012
A year abroad; a year filled with fun and hard work; a year spent making new, international friends - this is what my time at Southampton Solent University meant to me.
My course, Master in Marketing Management, can be highlighted for its practical approach - including, for example, the opportunity to work on a consultancy project in cooperation with a real company and get their professional feedback. I appreciated the fact that most teachers had a background in commerce, which made them more readily able to relate the theory with practice. This proved especially helpful in International Marketing, Entrepreneurial Marketing and Strategic Marketing. The latter was also strongly underpinned with a MARKSTRAT session.
During my stay in Southampton I enjoyed my course and would not have wanted to miss the nightlife, the real English pubs and theatres and the beautiful surroundings: especially the Solent and the Isle of Wight. I enrolled on a sailing course at Southampton Solent University, this was yet another new and thoroughly enjoyable activity I was able to take part in whilst studying at the University.
