Through her studies at Limkokwing University, communications student Ludo Maphorisa is finding out first-hand what it’s like to work in the industry.
“I chose a Communications field because it’s exciting and dynamic. I feel a degree in communication will give me a wide range of employment options. Effective communication is also an important driving force for innovation and progress, and is at the core of every successful business.”
Choosing Limkokwing University
“Before applying to any higher institution of learning I did plenty of research, I wanted to find an institution that matches my interests and so I fell in love with Limkokwing University.”
“What excites me about Limkokwing University is I get to mingle with students from around the world; this broadens my perceptions of different cultures and makes my studies even more fun. I sharpened my skills on cross cultural communication and I’m confident that after graduating I can work anywhere in the world.”
Unique approach to learning
“Limkokwing made the transition from high school to university absolutely seamless. The lecturers are supportive and always ready to guide you when needed.”
“The University also has a unique approach to learning, it’s fast paced and the discussion topics evolve in line with current global trends. I love that a lot of the assignments can be shaped around your interests; this makes it easier to absorb information while keeping up with industry standards.”
“I couldn’t be more of an advocate for the programme. I think it prepares you extremely well for the industry.
Overcoming challenges
Adapting to the pace of university life can be tricky at first, Ludo admits, but she says there’s plenty of support available if you need it.
“For a while I found it difficult to manage my assignments and determine what content was reliable and acceptable for a university assignment more so that I registered late, but the support I got from my lecturers helped me pull through and stay up to date with my studies.”
“Fortunately, one of Limkokwing University’s greatest strengths is the support the university provides. It feels like they’re your family; always pushing you to succeed.”
“I’m so grateful for the awesome work the university does towards ensuring our success as students.”
