Naila Malik
International Tourism Management BA graduate
I really enjoyed meeting people from different backgrounds and cultures. Having a diverse range of students made class debates much more interesting. My experience and degree from Middlesex helped me develop and strengthen key skills which all employers look for. I left Middlesex confident and knowing I would secure a good job.
Marta Chrostowska
International Tourism Management (Spanish) BA Graduate
After graduation, I left to go to China for the Study China Programme, which is managed by another university and funded by the UK Government - applications begin every March.
The Study China Programme attracted me with a unique opportunity to experience Chinese life, culture, language and business. I was studying at the Zhejiang University (Hangzhou) - one of the top higher education institutions in China. Whilst there, I got an insight into business, I attended many cultural activities, met lots of people, I did an intensive course of Mandarin and travelled. I visited Hangzhou, Suzhou, Beijing and Shanghai twice – I fell in love with this city.
Take a look at Marta’s artwork which was inspired by her time in China.
