Testimonials

Joseph Benson

MSc International Management | 2017

"My main reason for choosing the University of Bolton was because of its small size. This enables interactive lessons and quality education through one to one support. The facilities at the Institute of Management are also state-of-the-art which makes studying here comfortable but also inspiring."

Chris Evans

Programme Manager, Trescal Limited |

"I studied Bolton’s Executive MBA and found lecturer support was always available, be that via phone in person or e-mail. This support was supplemented by an abundance of electronic resources available on all the subject areas covered and electronic access to numerous academic databases and libraries. I found great satisfaction in working hard to successfully achieve an MBA which has and will be a help throughout my career."

David Stretton

BA (Hons) Accountancy | 2014

"I believe that without the University of Bolton I would not be where I am today. It supplied me with the knowledge that I could apply to my current graduate trainee role towards becoming a Chartered Accountant. "
