    “I knew I wanted to do my postgraduate degree abroad for the unique experience of studying in a foreign country. When researching universities in the UK, I discovered the University of Birmingham and its strong reputation. I was drawn to doing a master's in education at the University of Birmingham because I was able to specialize in leadership within education. The mix between academic excellence and a vibrant student life solidified my choice to study my program - and I am very happy with my decision!”
