Jana Fiserova
BA(Hons) European
Business

Jana Fiserova
arrived at the University of Huddersfield from the
Technical University of Liberec in the Czech Republic
following a visit by academic staff from the Department
of Business Studies. Jana is one of many Czech students
to have made the transition onto the BA(Hons) European
Business programme which is proving extremely popular
with students across Europe. |
'I decided to study
the course for two main reasons: on the one hand it is related
to the business course I used to study in the Czech Republic,
and on the other hand I'd love to work in a company operating in
the international market and I'm sure that study of European
Business will be a good start for my future career. After
completing my degree, I intend to continue onto the MA
International Business which will deepen my knowledge even more.
My expectations of
studies in England were high at the beginning but they have been
more than exceeded. It's hard work but I know it's worth it!'

MSc
Entrepreneurship

'Under the
'Experiencing Entrepreneurship' module, I set up Network
Zambia Sheffield as a small friendly association of the
Zambia Community in Sheffield. The association has since
grown from an initial 12 supporters to over 100
supporters. The association secured over £6000 start up
grants from various sources in its first year of
inception. The framework under which the association was
developed is being adopted by other Zambian communities
outside Sheffield. |
The programme gave an
opportunity to understand the world of entrepreneurs,
organisational development and strategy development. The course
was focused on giving students a practical forum to apply the
theory and the lecturers and tutors were very supportive.'

Dedicated to quality in
teaching and learning
By choosing the University of
Huddersfield you can be guaranteed of a continuing dedication to quality
and high standards in our teaching and learning.
The University has achieved
the highest scores available in a Government quality review in 2004. The
United Kingdom's Quality Assurance Agency, reviewed five academic areas - including
Business Studies and Accountancy- as a measure of the overall quality of
the University.
The report praises good
practice in student induction and support, supervision and personal
tutorial arrangements and the continual focus on student needs.

former polytechnics.
It's these factors that
