Top Tips for Studying at the Business School
Toby Dart
BSc Business Management
"Make sure to choose modules that you think you'll enjoy based on their title as well as the content, so that you will have an easier time learning."
It's important to maintain a good work-life balance since studying all the time can get overwhelming and make things much more difficult. Make study sessions shorter to ensure you get the most out of them"
Ruby Maberley
BSc Business Studies with Law
"My top tips will be to stay focused, make sure that you are always on task, get things done in time and plan effectively. That definitly helped me throughout my 3rd year.'
Cameron Shears
BSc Marketing and Finance
"Develop relationships with your seminar tutors and professors. The more contributions you make when it comes to group presentations and sessions, the more they will associate you with those activities.
Use the pomodoro technique, which means studying for a period of 25 minutes and taking a 5-minute break. That has helped me work as effectively as possible.
Have a balanced lifestyle, make sure to enjoy your time, go out and be social but don’t neglect your academics."
Natalie Hardcastle
BSc Business and Management
"At the Business School, I learned time management, planning, and organisation skills. My advice to you is to relax, have fun, and enjoy yourself but also start work early, work hard and do as well as you can in your first assessments."
Julija Novikov
BSc Business and Management
"As a student, I gained skills like supply chain and operational management that I can apply in the workplace. Having a good network motivates you when you're studying full-time, so make friends with the right people who will help motivate you while you're in school."
