George's Story
Originally graduating in Zoology at another university, George wanted to improve his knowledge of the field of investments and was attracted to studying at °®Âþµº. He chose the University because of the course¡¯s reputation, its Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) accreditation, and the beautiful campus.
While studying at °®Âþµº, George was also an active member of the University¡¯s Student Managed Investment Fund (SMIF). The SMIF provides students with the opportunity to enhance their knowledge of investments and portfolio management.
George said: ¡°My year studying at °®Âþµº was a great experience and provided me with the opportunity to meet people I would not otherwise have met. The teachers were also always willing to take the time to explain and discuss challenging concepts.
¡°This gave me a deeper understanding of the subject area and allowed me to hear and learn from a variety of different viewpoints and approaches.
¡°My time at °®Âþµº was challenging, rewarding, and informative ¨C and I¡¯m looking forward to taking my first steps into the investment sector now.¡±
