My Cardiff

Ankit Jain

Ankit Jain studied for an MBA at Cardiff Business School in 2005/06. He remembers influential Professors and lasting friendships

It’s a matter of pride and pleasure for me that I am an alumnus of a prestigious institution celebrating 125 years of success.

Cardiff memories won’t ever leave my mind and heart. Studying at Cardiff was the crux of my education and helped polish my personality. I met lots of multi-ethnic friends and learnt about new cultures. I think this has made me more intellectual and distinct in a crowd of thousands.

Before coming to Cardiff I used to have a single house situated only in India, but now I can surely say that I have a house in every part of the world because my University colleagues were from different parts of world. They used to treat me more like a brother, and vice versa.

I often get admired when I recount my days while studying at the University – I went to loads of birthday parties, clubbing and hung out with my friends at our house on Colum Road, which I think is the best place in Wales to be in pleasant weather.

I’m really proud to be part of the University. I am thankful and obliged to all of my Professors - their knowledge and experience has helped me to become successful and hard working, and taught me to use my mind creatively.

Thanks to all of you associated with Cardiff University.
