Not quite the traditional Christmas turkey dinner |
Current MBA students were feeling a sense of relief (having just handed in their last piece of assessed work for the term, an HR essay) and also tiredness, as the end of term has seen them work particularly hard on a variety of group presentations, individual course work and in class tests.
It was great to hear of plans for candidates to be reunited with their families over the Christmas period. Many had plans to travel throughout UK and continental Europe.
We were also pleased to see a strong representation from the various business partners we have worked with in the last year. Several were keen to explore opportunities to offer internships, work placements and full time roles. With a range of very interesting people present, all with a passion for the College and the MBA programme it was not surprising that there was some extensive networking taking place.
Royal Holloways highly renowned choir performing added a very special feeling to the proceedings |
