Choosing the right postgraduate programme can be a challenging decision. It's not just an academic choice but also a significant financial investment. Ensuring that you select the programme that aligns with your goals is paramount. We want to ensure you are given the opportunities to speak to Business School staff in person to ask any questions you may have about your programme of interest, general questions about Durham University Business School or what it's like living in Durham. That's why we attend the QS fairs in addition to running our own events.
To make sure you get the most out of a QS fair we have put together our top tips:
1. Research your options before attending the fair
Take the time to research the programmes you are interested in studying and come with questions that are not answered on the university's website. This will ensure you make the most of your time at the fair. It's also really important for you to consider where in the world is best for you to study, what environment will you get the most out of. Look up the cities the universities are in too and see if they suit you.
2. Plan your time at the fair
QS fairs can be bustling events with many universities present. Plan your time wisely to ensure you visit the universities and sessions that matter most to you. Check the programme before hand and note down times and who you want to visit.
3. Ask lots of questions
The event is a great opportunity to get any questions you have answered about your course, scholarships and the university itself. If you plan to visit Durham University Business School's stand at the fair don't forgot to ask about our college system and what Durham City is like to live in.
4. Notes are key
Across the event you can get a lot of information, we would recommend taking notes that you can refer back to later to help you make your decision.
5. Chat to others
If you get the time, network and chat to others attending, they may offer some good advice, inspiration or even be a future class mate.
