I would recommend Coventry University London over and over again! The relationship I have with my lecturers is amazing; they’re really warm and make everyone feel comfortable. They also share their professional lives with us and it’s good to learn from people who have industry experience.

Online learning

To support your on-campus learning, we have committed to an online mobile-first teaching and learning setup that puts community and conversation at its core. You will have full access to Aula, our online learning platform, to help support your on-campus studies. Aula fosters learning communities and a sense of belonging, while encouraging you to work in a connected and collaborative manner.

Activity led learning

Our aim is to change your mindset from student to project lead. We provide opportunities to connect you with an external company where you will consider a strategic approach to client needs.* In our trading floor facility, students can analyse simulated businesses to apply the theory and strategies learned. This can help to sharpen skills and analyse the effects of decision making.

Living in England has given me a lot of understanding of other cultures, it’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced. The course gives you a great international perspective too. I’ve been to Paris Fashion Week, Bath, Wales and Belgium as part of field trips and my work placements!
