Students <strong>of</strong> The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Nicosia</strong> programme are ambitious people and <strong>the</strong>y come<br />
from different areas <strong>of</strong> private interest and organisations within government and industry.<br />

include: Royal Dutch Airlines, Revlon, Tradex, Cyprus Telecommunication Authority,<br />

The <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Nicosia</strong> <strong>MBA</strong> provides<br />
students with a rigorous academic challenge<br />
united with a rich personal development<br />
experience. The community <strong>of</strong><br />
dedicated faculty and engaged students<br />
allow for invaluable mentoring and teamwork<br />
opportunities.<br />
The smaller class sizes afforded students<br />
<strong>the</strong> opportunity to connect with instructors<br />
more easily. The pr<strong>of</strong>essors push<br />
hard toward <strong>the</strong> application <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> material<br />
through research and presentation <strong>of</strong><br />
results and impact. In my current position,<br />
this has been critical to my day-to-day<br />
achievements, but also in my career and<br />
in positioning myself for overall success,<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>MBA</strong> program at UNIC has been invaluable.<br />
If you asked me what I am using in<br />
my current position that I learned in <strong>the</strong><br />
UNIC <strong>MBA</strong> program, I would respond, ‘what<br />
am I not using!<br />

Moving into a broader leadership role<br />
demanded a deeper understanding <strong>of</strong><br />
business, finance and strategy. In many<br />
respects I thought it would be just <strong>the</strong>se<br />
aspects that would benefit me on <strong>the</strong> <strong>MBA</strong>,<br />
but I was surprised to find that <strong>the</strong> people<br />
and leadership aspects <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> programme<br />
were exceptionally rewarding and really<br />
grabbed me. I began to appreciate <strong>the</strong> importance<br />
<strong>of</strong> understanding oneself in order<br />
to lead o<strong>the</strong>rs as well as understanding<br />
<strong>the</strong> important human elements for success<br />
as a leader such as empa<strong>the</strong>tic listening.<br />
