MA HR & Knowledge Management, 2003

After being disappointed with the positivistic world of Finance, I wanted to study human resources. One senior lecturer advised me to apply to Lancaster University Management School. I still remember him saying that it was the best one in terms of academic excellence.
Looking back, I can now say that I made the right decision. No one can deny the excellent teaching quality and the support of the academic staff within the OWT department. I personally came out with a very different outlook on HR & KM. I did struggle a lot during my first few weeks where one is overwhelmed by the amount of material covered. But, though it was hard, I kept giving my best and was overjoyed when I got my results. Words are not enough to describe the memorable year I spent at Lancaster. But I think this is a lifetime experience which I would commend to many.
