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.

While a 9-to-5 office job is the norm in Hong Kong, I realised it wasn’t right for me and decided to switch career paths during the pandemic.

The course has its challenges, but I've learnt so much in both my professional and personal life. If it wasn’t for the course and the supportive tutors I've come across, I'd never have applied for my new role.
