About the course
Are you aspiring to become a technology leader or entrepreneur, or to create a start-up?

Today’s industry environments are complex and often involve interdisciplinary collaboration. To succeed, you’ll need a technical background as well as expertise in business, management and finance.

  • experimental learning in our Future Technology Labs

  • industry links during dissertation projects

  • guest lectures featuring international speakers and industry leaders.

As a graduate, you’ll have the knowledge and skills to compete in the fast paced-world of engineering management.

    Law
    Hi! My name is Zehra, and I’m a first-year LLB Law student at the University of Sussex. I’m really excited to be part of the Student Ambassador Programme and to support students who are considering joining our community. My goal is to become a barrister, and I’m particularly interested in areas such as human rights, public, and employment law. I’m passionate about supporting and advocating for underrepresented communities. As a first-generation student, an ethnic minority immigrant from Turkey, a mature student, and someone living with a disability, I truly understand how important it is to feel supported, welcomed, and connected at university. That’s why I’m here — to share my journey, answer your questions, and help you feel confident in finding your own path. I speak both Turkish and English, and outside of my studies, I enjoy reading, watersports, chess, cinema, and music. I also have a cat who keeps me company during my study sessions! If you’re feeling unsure, curious, or just want to chat, feel free to reach out — I’m always happy to help.
