Petya

City, University of London

Business Management (with Professional Placement) BSc (Hons)

My name is Petya and I am from Sofia, Bulgaria. This is my third year in London studying Business Management. I am passionate about expanding my knowledge in marketing, economics, and entrepreneurship. Last academic year I pursued an Industrial Placement in London with one of the leading professional services firms. Throughout my journey at Bayes Business School, I have gained business acumen and met with wonderful people from all around the world. Because of City's available resources for students, I managed to network with professionals and learn a lot regarding future careers. In addition, I have engaged with my university in many ways. I have been Student Representative for my course and also Resident Life-Coordinator for one of City's accommodations in which I lived. I have also been part of the Student Engagement Advisor team where I worked to enhance Bayes' Welcome Week for new students. I am more than happy to share my knowledge and experience with prospective students. 

Reza

City, University of London

Finance with Actuarial Science BSc (Hons)

I am a second-year student at City, University of London, currently pursuing a degree in Actuarial Science (I’m sure you haven’t heard much about this course!). My academic journey has been shaped by diverse experiences across different countries. Originally from Pakistan, I was raised in the UAE, where I developed a strong passion for both academics and sports. Representing the UAE at the U16 national level in cricket was a proud moment that taught me the values of teamwork, discipline, and perseverance.

After completing my IGCSEs in the UAE, I moved to the UK at 17 to further my education. I completed a foundation course at Kaplan, which prepared me for the rigorous academic environment at university. My dedication paid off when I secured admission into City, where I’m now delving into the world of risk and probability through my studies in Actuarial Science.

At City, I’m focused on excelling academically while also developing a well-rounded skill set for a successful career in actuarial science. My journey from Pakistan to the UAE and now to the UK has been one of growth, learning, and embracing new challenges, and I’m excited to see where it takes me next.

Susanna

City, University of London

Criminology and Sociology BSc (Hons)

Hi, I’m Susanna
 I’m in my 2nd year at City studying Sociology & Criminology, I really enjoy this course. Criminology, with its focus on crime, law, and justice, has been a particular passion of mine. I’ve delved into the psychological and sociological factors that contribute to criminal behavior, as well as the societal responses to crime. My research often intersects with issues of social justice, exploring how policies and practices in the criminal justice system impact different communities. Outside of academia, I’m deeply engaged in activities that enrich my understanding of the world around me. I enjoy volunteering with organizations focused on criminal justice reform, where I can see firsthand the real-world implications of the theories I study. This hands-on experience is something I believe is crucial for anyone interested in this field.
