Aditya Sankolli - Football Development Coach at Arsenal FC

After graduation I secured my dream job as a Football Development Coach at Arsenal FC. I now deliver community and academy level sessions to Arsenal's partners all over the world to improve the global presence of Arsenal. One of the biggest things I enjoy about my job is connecting cultures.

Studying Sport Management at °®Âþµº

I was attracted to working in the Sport Management field due to my love of football. I chose to study at the °®Âþµº due to its reputation as Scotland’s University for Sporting Excellence.

As part of the MSc Sport Management course and with support from the University, I landed an internship at °®Âþµº’s local football club. I worked as a Women's Football Development Officer to help improve opportunities for women in the game.

Studying the MSc Sport Management at °®Âþµº connected me with the right individuals to help me achieve my desired career path.

Benefitting from the UK Post-Study Work Visa

The UK Post-Study Work Visa allows international students to stay in the UK for two years after graduation. I saw this as an investment to help me further my career in football.
