            I attended Bournemouth University in 2007, in order to study Tourism & Hospitality Management. Although I had in mind the professional path I wanted to follow, it was BU that gave shape to my thoughts and goals. With the updated, high quality professors and the amazing infrastructure, it provides a fantastic base, in which every student can built his/hers future dreams. Except the specific knowledge I gained, Bournemouth University taught me a way of thinking and processing of information that follows me until now. For this reason, whenever I face new professional challenges, I realize that the tools I gained from my studies are endless. I highly recommend Bournemouth University, as the place to be for any person interested to study Services Management.

            I attended Bournemouth University in 2005/2006. I can still vividly recall the welcoming atmosphere; the quality interaction and support of the faculty and the International Office; the high standards the lecturers brought to us and expected from us; excellent student services and facilities and the many solid friendships I made and still maintain. While there, I was elected President of the Bournemouth University International Students Association (ISA)and served for one year with a fabulous and dynamic Committee and Membership of students from around the world. It allowed me to experience firsthand the wealth of culture, talent, brilliance and togetherness of the student body that makes Bournemouth Univeristy such a vibrant place to be. The location is absolutely beautiful too. I am happy to recommend Bournemouth University as a great place for any International Student.

            When I was at the Dorset Institute of Higher Education, now called Bournemouth University, I had the time of my life because I wanted to be there. Most of my tutors were worth their money: some not. If you take out the bank loan of your life, be sure you want it and don't settle for second best when it comes to tutors. Ps. The staff of Media Resources are brilliant.
