I chose Coventry University London for the course itself. No other university offers this type of course, with such advanced technologies and entrepreneurial support. I like the Enterprise Hub a lot, it's a space that allows students to bring their business ideas to life with the support of the university’s facilities and support staff. I also enjoyed how the campus was so international.

I chose this course because I want to be an entrepreneur. If anyone has the goal of being an entrepreneur or to have their own business, then this is the perfect course. It gives you experience in each class, we contact one entrepreneur to find out how they started a business, what problems they faced and how they overcame them. It’s perfect for anyone looking to start their own business.

University is a place where you can find different kinds of people, with different goals, and you’ll gain more than knowledge. I’d encourage anyone to gain in-depth knowledge about their;chosen field and get hands-on experience which will help you in life.

The best part about the university are the teachers. Our teachers are so friendly and we can get in contact with them 24/7. The support staff are the same – they’re so friendly and kind, and they helped me a lot when I first arrived at the university.

London is the business hub of the world and is so multicultural. In other countries, you’d never find as much diversity.

After graduation, I want to focus on my business. I plan to establish a sustainable product related to plastic bottles and help to make society a better place.
