Sean Michael Coldicott -MSc Business and Management (Business Analytics)

I have always been interested in developing my skills and pursuing a career in analytics.

I initially decided to embark on an undergraduate degree in business management, where I could specialise in accounting.

Fast forward to today, and I’m eight months into my MSc Business Management (Business Analytics) course. The topics I’m learning are helping me every day in my career and I’m grateful to say my experience studying at the University of Essex Online has been incredible so far. Modules such as financial decision making and statistics for business have helped me to develop transferable skills and I’ve been lucky enough to secure a role as a performance analyst as a result of this.

The University of Essex Online is a great place to study. The Student Support team are very helpful and tutors have been friendly and professional. The tutors have a much faster turnaround time than the other institutions I previously studied with, which helps me to stay motivated with upcoming assignments.

I’m looking forward to spending the next 12 months continuing my studies, before deciding what the future holds. Either way, I’m thankful for the opportunity I’ve been offered and would highly recommend the University of Essex Online.

Choosing this course was an easy decision for me; it allowed me to maintain my job while pursuing my studies, enabling me to apply the skills I developed directly to my work and vice versa.

A year ago, I was a full-time professional with a long-held passion for computer science, but no clear path to a degree. Today, I’m a thriving first-year BSc (Hons) Computer Science student with the University of Essex Online and I wouldn’t change a thing.

Once I've completed the course and obtained my degree, I hope to use it to progress into senior leadership roles within the NHS and play a part in making a positive change to healthcare in our country.
