IT and Strategic Innovation MSc: What our students say

"I found Jonathan Briggs' lecture to be absolutely amazing! I found him to be extremely knowledgeable and up to date. His extensive examples of real-world points from his own business added context to the theory. With many lecturers, they will discuss theory but with Jonathan he would apply it proving that it really was of use. I learnt a vast amount.

"This is the type of lecturer I came to Kingston for. When looking around the room, it was clear that my class mates were caught on his every word just as I was. I think his lecture may have been the best lecture I have had in a few years."

"I completed my IT and Strategic Innovation with Management Studies MSc in 2008 and am now working as an IT consultant for Fujitsu UK, the third biggest IT consulting and services firm in the world.

"After completing my BSc(Hons) in Information Systems at the University of Mauritius, I worked for a year in industry on Oracle Technologies. I decided to do a masters degree in the UK, but was quite specific about finding one which deals with strategic decision making.

"I am convinced I made the right choice by coming to Kingston. The lecturers are highly qualified and involved in relevant research projects. They bring a lot of enthusiasm and current knowledge to their lectures, and their learning materials are of very high quality. I was awarded a teaching assistant scholarship, which was a great relief financially.

"As an international student, an important part of my time at Kingston University was meeting people from around the world and sharing experiences. I made so many friends that I never felt too far from my country, Mauritius. It's been an unforgettable experience.

"It would have been extremely hard for me to get work experience in the UK without my masters degree. I strongly recommend Kingston University, which has paved my way into a challenging career in such a highly respected IT company."
