    Student Testimonial

    “I chose DBS because of its location, reputation and the recommendations based on past students. DBS has helped me change my career direction to the event industry. My event studies provided me with the opportunity to work in various events and gain experience which will help me get my dream job.

    The lecturers really made my experience a good one, there was always support available. They were really upbeat, friendly and helpful. They provided the help and guidance when I needed it, and helped me achieve my first class honours degree which I'm very thankful for."

    Student Testimonials

    "I chose DBS because it had all I was looking for plus it was cheaper for international students compared to others. I enjoyed that DBS had specific “major” for each course and ended up doing Digital Media, which was great.        

    John Noble (Digital Marketing Concepts and Digital Planning and Management) were my favorites from my first year at DBS and Victoria Doyle (consumer analysis) was my favorite from my graduate year. Both were well thought and interesting.        

    Everyone at DBS had the opportunity to study, and I value that so much, since I know a lot of people wish they had the same opportunity, so I don’t think we could complain.

    My advice to future students is choose what you think you will enjoy the most, but be realistic and think about the opportunities that programme will bring to you as well.        

    I would reccommend DBS to others - great lecturers and programmes."
