BA (Hons) Business Management
My friend recommended BCUIC to me – he joined in January 2017 and has since progressed to the University. Plus, I always wanted to come to Birmingham!
The pathway concept appealed to me too – you get to meet other internationals and class sizes are small, so you have more contact time with tutors.
What I’ve enjoyed most about studying at BCUIC is the student experience – I’ve made so many friends for life. I joined the Student Council in my first semester, and that helped my confidence both academically and socially.
There’s nothing to worry about because you get plenty of support, as soon as you arrive, and Student Services are so responsive if you do experience any problems. It’s a friendly place; everyone is lovely. It’s been an extraordinary experience!
If you’re interested in studying Business Management at Birmingham City University, find out about our Business pathway here.
