My WBS experience has been phenomenal. The outstanding quality of education with engaging classes, supportive professors, and the diverse student body creates a vibrant multicultural environment, in which you can exchange ideas with people from all corners of the globe.

In this short period of time, you will connect with so many like-minded people who also joined WBS as future changemakers and you can collaborate together to look to bettering this world!

We should never underestimate the power of networking. It’s no secret, that any new person you meet in your life knows something you didn’t know before.

It’s hard to pick out on standout moment from my time at WBS, as you’re being involved in so many different activities, festivals provided by WBS and events organised by Career Plus Team. But for me, it would be guest lectures from CEOs of multinational corporations, renowned economists, and thought leaders sharing their experiences.

Learning from such accomplished individuals provides invaluable insights and inspiration to make a change, and impact on your chosen area - leveraging what you learned throughout this life-changing experience.

WBS offers a plethora of student societies catering to diverse interests. I joined the Warwick Volunteers which allows me to unwind with friends after a long day of lectures by giving back to the community. There's something for everyone. Be it sports, dancing clubs, cultural societies, or a picnic time, you can not only catch up with classmates - but also treat each other with your national cuisine meal. Explore more about different cultures and luckily our campus has everything for this to offer you!

Be social, and remember, you're not alone. WBS offers fantastic student support services, from dedicated wellbeing advisors to peer mentors. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need guidance or support.

Embrace the opportunities, challenge yourself, and most importantly, enjoy your time at WBS! It’s a place that makes you feel a part of a global family for life, which you'll cherish for years to come.
