London - a vibrant city
A campus with a wealth of opportunities best describes Regents College. Not only is it one of the few colleges that has a campus in central London, but its prime park location makes it easy for students to explore one of the worlds most entertaining cities from dusk to dawn. Baker Street tube station, which is only a 5-minute walk away, links students to major sites and attractions in London and adventurous types can take the train to other major European cities. London is a city of colours and contrasts, of ancient history and 21st century modernity, a melting pot of the worlds cultures and nationalities. Since the Romans founded Londinium in AD60, London has grown and prospered to establish itself as the largest, most exciting city in Europe. With a population of 7 million, 30% of whom are of overseas descent, London is one of the biggest and most ethnically diverse cities in the world, with around 200 languages spoken within its confines. The countrys news and money are made here, and many of the biggest multinational companies in the world are based in Londons financial district.
Londons museums and galleries several of them ranking amongst the worlds finest are full of treasures trawled from Europe and beyond. Monuments from the capitals more glorious past, from medieval banqueting halls to the great churches of Sir Christopher Wren, stand alongside modern wonders such as the Tate Modern. For entertainment, London is truly unsurpassed. London caters for all shopping tastes, from lively markets in Portobello Road and Camden Town, to expensive boutiques and world renowned department stores such as Harrods and Selfridges. There are hundreds of nightclubs, restaurants and theatres to choose from, as well as the many London pubs which are renowned for their character and bonhomie. As the home of the Royal Opera House, Royal Albert Hall and London Symphony, there are facilities for every kind of music lover. Contrary to popular belief, London need not be an expensive place to live. The citys huge student population means that there is plenty of good value accommodation to be found in the capital and many shops and attractions offer student discounts. From Michelin starred restaurants to all-youcan-eat Indian buffets, there is a restaurant to suit every pocket in London.

Christian David-Griffiths (UK)

RBS London - MA Graduate 2004 Christian David-Griffiths followed RBS Londons Masters programme. He is from the UK, but has spent much of his life living abroad, attending a number of international schools. He joined RBS London as an undergraduate student in 1998, with A Levels in Business, Design and Computer Science and graduated in 2000 with a BA (Hons) International Business. Upon graduating, Christian enrolled on a graduate training programme with The Institution of Mechanical Engineers. RBS London sets the international dimensions required to succeed in global business. Its like a global village, with a family atmosphere, encouraging cross-cultural awareness. The School puts great emphasis on experiential learning that prepares you for employment. I found this put me at an advantage when applying for jobs, compared to candidates from other institutions.
I was attracted to come back to RBS London to do a Masters for a number of reasons - the specialisation of the course in entrepreneurship and the opportunity to top-up my programme with a Webster University MBA. This Masters programme has been both challenging and fun - and I have enjoyed a number of additional activities outside the curriculum. In our 1st semester, a group of us entered the Universities Business Challenge, sponsored by IBM. This was an outstanding experience, combining the pressure of working under time constraints while harnessing the strengths of all the team-members to make an efficient group. It is an excellent addition to my CV and has been a useful talking point at interviews. Christians career preferences are consultancy or marketing, with particular emphasis towards e-commerce.

We are very proud of our Alumni, many of whom have gone on to be outstandingly successful in the global business environment.
Evanna Barrington (Ireland)

RBS London - MA Graduate 2005 It has been a really exciting year at RBS London and Ive learned so much during my time here, as well as meeting some great people along the way. When I arrived I was rather nervous of all the challenges that a year abroad would bring, but was relieved to find so many people in the same boat as me in a new city with strange surroundings. We had a good Induction getting to know fellow students who come from 23 different countries, and it all started to fit together quite quickly. I am really glad I chose this programme as it has given me a push in the right direction opening up several career options. Many aspects of my class work and the programme have been challenging, but the small classes and supportive staff have allowed me to overcome these and build some new skills.
Debby Afeah (Nigeria) RBS London - MA Graduate 2005 The lecturers on the MA programme are brilliant. I appreciate the small study groups here at RBS London in a beautiful campus location.
Anthony Sabga (Trinidad & Tobago)

RBS London - MA Graduate 2005 RBS London is a different sort of Business School. Small classes, excellent staff and a truly international atmosphere make for an impressive postgraduate experience. The small groups encourage interactive learning and the chance to build friendly relationships with tutors and other students. The staff have a positive commitment to helping students and preparing us for the corporate arena through our academic work and skills sessions. RBS London has been a really good experience, which I can definitely recommend.

Team captain: Raheel Tanwir (Pakistan)

RBS London - MA Graduate 2006 Taking part in the IBM Business challenge in 2004 -05 was a truly wonderful experience and an enriching learning curve for us all. It combines the pressure of working under time constraints while harnessing the strengths of our multi-cultural team to make an efficient group. One thing that stands out is the integrity of the simulation in which teams compete for market share, profitability, share price and customer satisfaction. This makes the competition incredibly real and challenging. It will be excellent on the CV, make a useful talking point at interviews, and I will remember it for many years to come. Not bad to come 2nd out of 139 university teams. Just beaten by Imperial College London!
International Collegiate Business Strategy Competition

In April 2007, RBS Londons Masters Team achieved 1st place in the International Collegiate Business Strategy Competition (ICBSC) at the University of San Diego, USA - and enjoyed a unique learning experience that they will remember for the rest of their lives. This was the 3rd consecutive year that RBS London had entered a Masters team in this high-profile event, which attracts participation from universities across the USA, Canada, Mexico and the Middle East. RBS Londons win was particularly notable since it represented the first win by a European team in the competitions 43 years. The RBS London team included students from Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Indonesia, France and Bahrain - and expertly supported by Eric Chan, Senior Lecturer and Simulation Game coach, who travelled with them. ICBSC enables advanced business students to integrate and apply the theories of their various courses to a computerised international simulation. Participants become strategic managers of simulated companies, competing against other business students who act as managers of their own companies. The simulated environment incorporates the economies of two countries and requires consideration of global and domestic strategy. Over the years, many students have regarded participation in this event as the single most beneficial educational experience of their university careers.
