Describe a typical day on your course

A typical day included going to classes and enjoying being with my friendly international classmates and enthusiastic professors, who made the classes interesting to attend and learn.

What were the best bits of your course?

Very good lecturers, a practical course, interesting classes, very good information and exceptional learning. It also opened up a lot of future career prospects - international business, management, marketing, accounting, HR, and so on.

What surprised you about the course?

I was surprised at how practical the course was. The assignments required you to critically incorporate theories in specific situations, rather than just memorising theories and repeating them on a piece of paper in exams.

How did Solent help you prepare for a career?

Solent equipped me with valuable knowledge and understanding of major business, economic, and political matters. I have been involved in a work placement to gain practical experience. I’ve also met a lot of people and made connections, becoming more mature and able to handle my life through being independent at university.
