In my batch and institute, I was one of the first students to go for a top-up year in Northumbria after doing my HND (Higher National Diploma). Going abroad for education was a big decision to make and there were many doubts in my mind regarding how I’m going to cope with everything. But these doubts were soon cleared once I started studying.

The experience in the UK was overwhelming. There was a lot to look forward to and a lot to learn from. I however had a keen interest in retailers offering branded apparels as I wanted to establish a business in fashion industry back in Pakistan. Once I had completed my bachelors degree, I opted for a masters programme and got admission in MSc Marketing. That further enhanced my qualification and also gave me more time to learn as much as I could from the UK.

Deciding to go for a degree in a foreign institute has been the turning point of my career.

Newcastle Business School did not disappoint me and very soon I realized that the education system over here forces you to work hard. It was not easy but I allocated a lot of time to my studies and emerged as a successful graduate. The studies had a practical approach rather than theoretical and from that I learned a lot.
