Computer Science / IT, 2026
Overall
As a current student in the IT Management for Business (ITMB) program at Alliance Manchester Business School (AMBS), I am eager to share my positive experiences with future students. The program's unique blend of technical and business education, experienced faculty, and diverse student body has provided me with a comprehensive understanding of the rapidly evolving IT industry and prepared me for a successful career.

The ITMB program's curriculum is designed to address the growing need for professionals who can navigate both the technical and business aspects of IT. The coursework covers topics such as software development, database design, data analytics, project management, and IT strategy. The program also emphasizes the importance of soft skills, including communication, leadership, and teamwork.

The faculty at AMBS are exceptional. They bring a wealth of industry experience and academic expertise to the classroom. Professors are passionate about teaching and genuinely committed to helping students succeed. They are approachable, supportive, and eager to share their insights and experiences with the students.

One of the standout aspects of the ITMB program is the diversity of the student body. My classmates come from various backgrounds and cultures, providing a rich learning environment and fostering a spirit of collaboration. The program encourages networking and offers opportunities to engage in real-world projects, allowing students to apply their knowledge and gain practical experience.

Personal comments
There was a big mix of students in Manchester - from all over the UK. You get used to a lot of slangs. It is important to stay a way from people who speek your own language because you easily find yourself speakting (in my case) German. Get yourself involved in a sport team or another social team where there are hardly any internationals - that is important!!

althought it was easy to get into contact with local students, exchange students stuck together in groups with students from their own countries so the contact to the locals split up after couple of weeks
