LIBF focuses on modern research in finance and from day one encourages students to think about their future. The careers team is amazing and students are always able to seek help for applications, and attend networking events The university has a professional environment and a focus on studies. This somewhat comes at a cost of the social aspect. Many of the societies are set up around finance and although this is perfect for the course, it restricts the amount of socialising amongst peers in a relaxed environment. However, this has been through times of Covid restrictions, and since there have been huge improvements in this area thanks to a new support team. Due to the smaller size of the university it is easy and encouraged to speak out, share opinions and suggest changes to be made. The uni is supportive of any societies or extra curricular activities you may want to start and are happy to provide resources to help you develop them. It can be a matter of taking responsibility for any events/societies you would like to be involved with, and creating them yourself. Overall, I have really enjoyed my time thus far and felt like I have been given a great depth of knowledge to be fully prepared for a career in finance.

The best aspect has to be the education including the modules that we learn as well as extra education available including Bloomberg certificates, Coursera and CFA to name a few. Everything is super relevant and allow students to really get ahead of the game. I love the support from the careers team, provide great support and networking events. Also, many of the lecturers have a wealth of knowledge, and I'd like to mention Lecturer B and C as their passion and energy is contagious, and are willing to go above and beyond to help students. The worst aspect will have to be the social aspect. It's tough having so few students as it's unlikely to find many people with similar interests. It's hard not to be slightly envious of the plethora of sports and activities taking place in larger universities. Although, the uni tries hard to support students to set up societies, it can be hard to get a group tougher regularly.
