University of Edinburgh Business School

Student experience - Artin Moussavi

I was attracted to the University of Edinburgh Business School by its strong reputation for quality, which was supported by its high standing in the business school rankings.

I was also attracted to Edinburgh’s social scene and numerous extracurricular activities, which help restore the work/life balance.

The MBA has played a vital part in my career. It provided me with invaluable skills and helped me onto the fast track. I accumulated important knowledge from the courses and projects and through discussions with industry experts and classmates.

After graduation I took on the responsibilities of CEO in an early-stage biotechnology company called LUX Innovate, based in Edinburgh. The School helped me find this job by introducing me to the founder of the business and the Director of Research.

Edinburgh was a wonderful period in my life, both in personal and professional terms. Not only did I spend a fantastic year on the programme but I have also continued to benefit from the network of alumni that cover practically every country in the world.
