I chose Advertising and PR for their creative, yet strategic nature. This course is providing me with the right set of skills to work in these exciting sectors, through stimulating and engaging classes. Working on several group projects has also given me an idea of how these two industries really work. London is a great place for these two sectors and Richmond University has links with many companies for internships. From building an effective CV to sending a final application, they are really helping me a lot!
My tutors are enthusiastic, inspiring and available outside class for support. Their suggestions are always constructive, and it is great to hear from the experience of professionals.
Richmond University attracted me for its American education and international perspective. I’ve met people from the world over, it really is an international University! I was expecting a lot by this experience, but I’m getting even more!
Richmond brought me friendships that I hope will last a lifetime and gave me the best year of my life so far. I chose to come to London because I wanted to gain experience abroad. I explored London a lot, went to cultural festivals and made the city my home. Though small in size, I will never forget the cultural diversity Richmond offers; I met people from so many different countries just because of my time there. It didn’t take long to get to know other students, including from different years or courses; everybody was so friendly. It’s easy to get involved in the student life. Richmond created a realistic picture of what to expect when we enter a business life and due to the involvement of a lot of guest speakers in our lectures I feel really well prepared for the future. In addition to my professional knowledge I’ve learnt a lot about myself and that I am able to adapt to different and sometimes even difficult circumstances. Richmond exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend it to others, especially to people who feel that personal support is important to them.
I decided to study my MA at Richmond as I only wanted to pursue a postgraduate degree if it was practical and relevant to my career, so Richmond was a perfect fit for me.
I’ve really enjoyed writing press releases, creating advertising and PR plans and even presenting, which was scary initially but we did so many presentations throughout the year that by the end, I was really comfortable with it.
I was very fortunate as I did a summer internship with a PR agency who specialise in healthy food and drink and natural beauty brands, where I was able to put what I learned at Richmond to use. In September, they offered me a permanent position as a Junior Account Executive, so it’s worked out brilliantly.
