Our student stories

OU study is really rewarding and opens doors to lots of opportunities. It does require self-determination, but there’s flexibility available to make it easier to fit your studies around your other commitments.

My MBA provided me with a 'career parachute' when my role in my chosen career disappeared overnight.

I chose to do my MBA with the OU because of the incredible opportunity it gives you to study and work at the same time.

The OU has changed my life! It gave me the opportunity to study the subjects I really love and access to my current career.

The way you study with the OU helps equip you with new skills.

I would recommend the OU to anyone all over the world because you can fit it around your life. You can do the course online whenever you have time and it has a fantastic reputation.

I would never have got where I am without the great opportunities that became available to me as a result of my Open University Business School studies.

I would recommend the OU to anyone, especially the Business modules. If you run a business, then study Business and Management!

With the OU MBA under my belt, I feel I will be able to make a positive impression in the workplace and beyond.

My tutors were incredibly supportive and were always available when I had questions or mini meltdowns! The student community was invaluable as well.
