Student Experience

Liam studies Business Management here with us at Bangor Business School, here is what he had to say about his experience so far. 

My name's Liam Stone. I'm currently doing Business Management, and I'm in my second year.

I'm a local student, so, it was very easy for me to choose Bangor because it's nice and easy and convenient, and many of my family have come to this university as well, so I thought I'd carry on the legacy.

All the people that I've met, I've met some fantastic people in the business world now, that have opened my eyes to the world of business now.

I enjoy, the complexity. So having that wide range of business that we don't really see, and that bit's really interested to me.

My favourite thing about Bangor. Oh, it's a good question.

I'd have to say probably the closeness of everyone. When when you come to uni, everyone knows everyone around here, which is really nice to see.

And the history, I'm a massive history fan, so having a history of Bangor is really cool.

Clubs here are fantastic. They helped me get involved in the university as much as I can.

So any of the sports clubs, societies, they're fantastic.

Just take your time. Don't feel like you have to do what everyone else is trying to do.

Just be your own person and trust you'll fit in just fine.

Bangor is just a fantastic place to be. The scenery is amazing, and the University itself looks incredible. I’d heard great things about the student experience in Bangor, so I knew it would be a place I would enjoy. There were some really great lecturers that genuinely cared about students success. It’s more than just a job to them. And a lot of them stay in touch after as well!

Graduate Profile Tom Haynes

Thanks to the guidance and support that was given to me by my lecturers, I left with a first class honours degree and now hold the position of International CRM Executive at Castore. The course helped me understand the mechanics behind how consumers engage with products and brands and how organisations can learn to monitor those behaviours and deliver superior value back to their consumers.

Graduate Profile Joshua Roberts

Attending Bangor University has significantly influenced my career. The reason I began to work with Real Ice is because of the network I built whilst at the university. This in-turn means that I have connected with significant figures in both politics and media. My experiences at the University allowed me to grow and gain confidence, which means that I am comfortable talking to and working with senior stakeholders, something I would only have dreamt of before attending Bangor University.
