This was a natural extension of my role at Standard Chartered bank in the wealth space. I was from a marketing background working in finance and therefore needed a formal ground to progress in the field of wealth and finance. This degree was essential for my next step.
Imperial College London is ranked 8th globally. It is one of the most prestigious colleges and has high end research facilities. The MRes Cancer Biology is the most popular course and very competitive in terms of a research degree. I took up this course cause they offered 2 research projects and they have PhD studentships that are offered from the MRC (fully funded on home level with stipend).
I chose this university for the research facilities, reputation, and postgraduate success. In addition, I love London and was excited to be able to continue living there after growing up.
I grew up in British Education, and Imperial is ranked #2 in the UK for Computer Science. Furthermore, Imperial's employability ratings for Computing post-degree are extremely high, and London is a great city to live in. I also had a friend study at Imperial before me so from his experience I knew I'd have a good time.
I chose Imperial College London because it is one of the leading institutes in the world when it comes to engineering and some research projects in the bioengineering department really grabbed my attention
The program and the prestige with Imperial College drove me to selecting this course. I also believe that the job market in the sustainability sector is booming at present. The UK is becoming a hub for environmental investments which in turn could create a plethora of jobs.
