Alumni Profile
Jide Oloruntoba, MSc
"My first degree was in Economics from the University of Ilorin, Nigeria. I decided to take up postgraduate study to help further and studied for an MSc. I have found that it has enabled me to study my subject in more depth and it is also delivering practical strategies that will enable me to tackle future challenges professionally."
Nageswary Sieslack
"As a marketing communications practitioner I had the opportunity to learn valuable theoretical information which I could not learn on the job. I benefited highly from the modules offered and the dedicated teaching staff. The interactive learning atmosphere in the tutorial sessions was very helpful in understanding the topics presented during the lectures. I always enjoyed attending the tutorials. The MSc in Marketing course helped fill in the blanks that were glaringly present in my CV. I now proudly and confidently apply my newly acquired knowledge in my new job."
