Here, we talk with him about his time at
Salford Business School.
Why did you choose to
study at Salford?
I was looking to progress my career and
wanted a reputable skill development programme and an experience that would
give me a competitive advantage in the career world. Manchester is a great
place and the university offers a really warm welcome.
The university was offering full tuition
scholarships but we needed to compete for the limited number of spaces. I won
the scholarship, the only Nigerian to do so.
What was your
highlight?
I enjoyed the Business Innovative Live
Project (BILP) the most. This took place during the last semester for three
months. It was work based and it gave good experience to enhance my CV. It
allowed for creativity and development of new skills and I finished with the
highest scores in the semester. This option is available across all
postgraduate programmes in the School.
What are you doing
now?
I always wanted to be Professor in Business
Management ever since I was in college. During the MBA programme, I was able to
develop the necessary research skill needed for the doctoral research programme
and built up good contacts within Salford Business School. My main PhD
supervisor has been very supportive and encouraging. I shared my career dreams
with her and she has been piloting my every step.
Would you recommend
Salford Business School to others?
I have already recommended the University
of Salford to several people who asked for my opinion! I came to this university
for personal development and career growth; and I’m achieving these. The
admission procedure is easy and clear; the library is well stocked with books
and on-line journals and the student-staff relationship is excellent.
