"I always knew that I wanted to go into an advertising or marketing career, but in what capacity, I wasn't sure. That's why I chose this course. It's extremely varied and I particularly liked that it had a design aspect to it too. I like how each of the modules are extremely varied but all link in well when making marketing decisions, something that I am now (in Year Two) seeing the advantages of when completing group work and assignments.

"I've learnt that it's important, especially with marketing, to make sure that you are always engaging with consumers correctly and meeting their needs. For that reason, the degree is perfect. It gives solid foundations from all aspects which you can build on and inevitably carry out effective marketing.

"I chose Nottingham Business School because I knew I wanted to undertake a placement year, and from my research, I knew that the School was credited highly for it. Also the course is designed brilliantly to match what employer's need from their employees.

"The lessons are enjoyable and I have made good friends that make it an overall fun experience. Socially, it's been great, and NTU and Nottingham Business School have everything you need.

"I'm fortunate that both my lectures and seminars are very small in size. Therefore it's easier for me to speak to a tutor. However, whenever I have needed advice away from the classroom, my tutors have always been readily available via email. The excellent library too has aided in being able to carry out assignments and research effectively.

"Because of this course I will now be ready to go into the working world with the belief that I can make real impact wherever I choose to find employment.

"I would definitely recommend studying at Nottingham Business School. It is at the forefront of everything new in the business world, and for that reason, it's the perfect place to start your way towards a professionally fulfilling career."
