BA (Hons) International Management Studies with European Languages and Society
United Kingdom
Looking back at my time in Stirling on the BA (Hons) International Management with European Languages and Society, I have nothing but fond memories. I highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking for a varied, balanced and intellectually engaging learning experience. I loved the fact that the subject matters were so different to one another yet complemented each other perfectly.
Coming to University, I had an open mind with so many different interests and was worried that I would have to confine myself to one subject matter. This course was perfect as it didn’t pigeonhole me to a particular one but allowed me to pursue them all at once, in a very well-interwoven way.As a language student, I felt so happy to walk around the Pathfoot building and talk to my lecturers who were so supportive and created a tight-knit community feel.
As a business student, I strolled around the Cottrell Building and pondered over my eye-opening lectures. This gave me such a good balance in University and made me graduate with the confidence that I had achieved well-rounded knowledge that would allow me to pursue a wide variety of career options.
As a graduate in Business and Language studies, I am comforted to know that I am not restricted to just one career path, which is extremely liberating and exciting.
Upon graduating, it allowed me to explore the fast-paced hospitality management industry and interact with guests from all over the world, with acute cross-cultural sensitivity and awareness. I hope to explore this industry some more before pursuing a career in European policy-making or international diplomacy.
