Master of Business Administration MBA

University of Chester

I recently completed my programme at the University of Chester, and my experience has been genuinely positive. The lecturers are supportive and approachable, and they encourage students to stay on top of their work. The constructive feedback I received helped me grow both academically and professionally. The learning environment is focused yet friendly, making it easier to concentrate and meet deadlines. The staff are willing to guide you when you seek support, which I truly appreciated. Chester itself is a calm and beautiful city, creating a great atmosphere for studying. Overall, I would recommend the university to students looking for a supportive academic environment where they can build confidence and develop practical skills.

I loved the amount of support there was for students, especially from an employment standpoint. But also for someone who is coming back to education after a while, academic support to help with academic writing. To echo the famous words of Dumbledore, "Help will always be given at Hogwarts to those who ask for it". At Chester, any help or assistance is just one question away.

Best said using my recent LinkedIn and Facebook post... As my MBA at the University of Chester draws to a close and the dissertation deadline looms ever closer, I’ve found myself feeling a little reflective about leaving an institution that has given me so much. From friendships across the globe, to knowledge and skills spanning a wide range of disciplines, my post graduate challenge has fostered a host of special memories and a renewed love for the city of Chester. From Roman guards shepherding schoolchildren past my lunchtime walks and stewarding some fearsome battles in Grosvenor Park, to a superbly talented academic team inspiring and challenging me in equal measure, together with the incredible professional services staff, including the wonderful security guard at Churchill House who once helped me hunt down a pair of emergency reading glasses. Perhaps it’s my combined thirteen years between the National Trust and Trentham showing, but a special mention must go to the estates team, whose tireless work creates the beautiful, seasonal spaces that have fostered new ideas, friendships, quiet moments and the occasional visit from my cockerpoo, Teddy Places of education matter. They bring people together around shared curiosity, act as engines for opportunity and growth, and inspire change far beyond their campuses. They are also powerful drivers of place - attracting students, families, partners and visitors from around the world, and contributing richly to the cultural and economic life of their cities. The year has flown . The low point was transitioning my head into academic writing. As a mature student working in marketing, content and storytelling it was a tough transition, but academic skills team and course leader and academic staff have been brilliant.

The lecturers are so accessible and the campus environment and facility is learning conducive. The course modules and curriculum is so detailed

One of the best aspects of my experience at the University of Chester was the supportive and close-knit environment. The smaller class sizes meant that lecturers were approachable and genuinely invested in my progress, which helped me feel confident asking questions and developing academically. I also appreciated how the university balances academic learning with practical support, such as access to academic skills workshops, wellbeing services, and careers guidance. Another highlight was the sense of community. Chester itself is a welcoming and student-friendly city, and being part of societies and group projects made it easy to build friendships. The historic campus and peaceful surroundings created a positive atmosphere that made studying feel enjoyable rather than overwhelming.
