It depends on your interests. Stirling is a small cozy town. For the nightlife I would go to either Glasgow or Edinburgh.

With the business studies and finance degree, the degree provides a wide theoretical understanding of the business and finace. However, there is no practical knowledge. The teachers are pure academics that have never work within the industry they teach.
