I enjoyed studying with students from diverse cultures as it gave me the opportunity to learn and understand their respective cultures in-depth.
I also enjoyed the engaging conversations that we had during lectures and tutorials, it made me think outside the box and it contributed positively to my learning process.
My advice for aspiring MPH students is to make the most use of the resources provided by the university and do not be afraid to ask questions, the lecturers are happy to help.
The Course has been a great challenge and a fantastic opportunity to expand my understanding, not only of my chosen subject area, but also of current developments in global business. Overall, the quality of learning and teaching is outstanding.
