'A key component of the International Business degree at Strathclyde is the opportunity to study abroad. Having mandatory time abroad pushed me to step out of my comfort zone. The classes I undertook in Thailand were challenging, but overall provided me with essential experience in the world of international business.'

'All of the teaching staff were not only extremely knowledgeable about their subjects but also very experienced with many having worked in industry allowing them to provide insight into how the skills we were developing would be utilised in a work setting.'

'I also wanted to study abroad and when I saw the long list of Strathclyde’s partner universities, I knew this would be a great opportunity to immerse myself in different cultures. In my 3rd year I applied to go on exchange and I was given the opportunity to study abroad at the Auckland University of Technology in New Zealand.'

'This course has allowed me to accrue great knowledge and practical skills that sets me up for my future career in the world of business. I have had many opportunities to put my learning into practice beyond the lecture hall, including delivering presentations to Arnold Clark and The Scottish Event Campus.'

'The course has prepared me for my long-term career aspirations through teaching valuable workplace skills such as presenting and teamwork. Additionally, I have language capabilities that aid my aspirations to work abroad.'
