Edinburgh Business School - Currie

Diane Sanson

I am not a natural academic due to a poor start in education. I completed an Economics Degree at Manchester some 20 years and it takes me a while to grasp concepts, with a deep breath I bought Organisational Behaviour on the MBA course studied it and passed. I then completed all other modules and gained my MBA. For any one hesitant, my advice is to but organisational behaviour 1st. This will give you the confidence to move forward. All the modules are clear and concise. I also travelled to campus for all 2 day and 4 day courses. Cannot recommend this place enough.

I participated in the structured doctoral programme of Edinburgh Business School, Heriot-Watt University. In my case, the phase of the supervision was a real disaster. My supervisor was an emeritus in his seventies and neither statistically qualified nor an expert in the underlying research field of entrepreneurial finance. The first time, where I received a response from experts in the research field was in the defence. As a result, the whole dissertation phase was too long and the supervision more than weak. I complaint, and at the end Edinburgh Business School suit me in Scotland, then after several years dropped the case and sent a bailiff in order to collect their court expenses. I'm unable to recommend that business school which has seen it as obviously normal that a professor in a crucial health situation, far away from an underlying subject with a lack of minimum statistical knowledge was assigned to qualify the next generation in a globalised and it-related world.

I love Edinburgh Business School, Heriot Watt University, Communicating with staff members has been so great. I highly appreciate the fast response rate every time I have a question or a request. The student portal is incredible and easily accessible on any device. I haven't felt like a distance learner so far due to the high engagement. I would recommend EBS over and over again.

The university doesn't have free online courses to encourage the students to work more harder and finish the course quickly. Live courses are very important and it should be free for the students. I already paid 5000 SAR for Organizational Behavior just to get the materials to to log in into the students dashboard but no free courses are available.
