“I’ve always enjoyed problem-solving and learning new things, which led me to pursue higher education and a professional career where collaboration, communication, and adaptability are key. My time at UA92 helped me build confidence, develop strong interpersonal skills through being a student representative, and prepare for life beyond education.

Almira

BSc (Hons) Accounting and Business

Almira studied Accounting and Business at UA92, graduating in 2024 and securing a role as a Future Talent Trainee at Tesla.

“I left Rochdale Sixth Form College in 2022, going straight in an Accelerated Accounting and Business degree at UA92. I chose an Accelerated course so that I could get into the world of work quicker, completing my studies in 2024. I now work as a Future Talent Trainee at Tesla, working across sales, service and delivery.”

Aman

BSc (Hons) Computer Science

Aman graduated from UA92 in 2025 with a degree in Computer Science.

“My journey at UA92 played a key role in shaping both my technical skills and personal growth. Studying Computer Science in such a hands-on and supportive environment. It really helped me to build confidence and a strong understanding of real-world problem solving.

After graduating, I went on to complete a project-based internship as a Data Analyst, where I was able to apply the skills and mindset I developed at UA92 in a professional setting. My experience at UA92 prepared me well for the world of work and continues to influence my career path.”

Archie

BA (Hons) Sports Journalism

Archie studied Sports Journalism at UA92, graduating in 2026 and now working as an IndyCar accredited journalist, and autobiography transcriber.

“While UA92’s motto of being ‘deliberately different’ led to me feeling joining the university could have been a gamble, any sense of risk was quickly eliminated and my three years proved foundational to my aspirations in the journalism field. At UA92, you really feel counted – a valued name rather than a number in a crowd. A close working relationship with lecturers was invaluable in my progress throughout my degree, with the support you receive much greater than at a ‘traditional’ university.

The mixture of theoretical work but lots of practical application of this knowledge was the perfect balance to feed an education as a multi-skilled budding media professional. Beyond assignment work, the opportunities that came from my time at UA92, chiefly a visit as accredited media to the Davis Cup in Manchester (an incredible experience as a lifelong tennis fan and player), were equally important for my development – both professionally and personally.”

Arne

BA (Hons) Sports Management

Arne graduated with a degree in Sports Management in 2025. He progressed into a role as an Account Manager for Sandhills East, before landing his current role as an SMB Account Manager at Deliveroo.

“I had so many incredible opportunities whilst studying at UA92, from volunteering with Swinton Lionesses, helping to develop their social media presence, to hosting the UA92 EDIB in Sports Leadership Conference, and being chosen as a Student Ambassador, taking part in open days, panels and events representing UA92’s student body. I started at UA92 when I was 17 due to being an international student, and I chose to do an accelerated degree as I wanted to get into the world of work as quickly as possible, meaning I graduated when I was only 19! I secured a role at Sandhills East before I even graduated.”

Bader

BA (Hons) Sports Management

Bader studied Sports Management, graduating in 2024. He is now Co-Founder and Sporting Director of Phoenix United FC.

“Studying at UA92 was a huge two years for me, as I stopped playing football professionally and I needed to find my way again. The environment at UA92 really helped me do that. Whilst I was studying, I was working on my business, which I run full time now. My tutors were massively supportive and allowed me to do this. The quality of my learning was a real catalyst for progression and now I’m the youngest Sporting Director of a professional football club in the world. Outside of my academic study, I won Sportsperson of the Year, achieving two consecutive promotions for UA92’s football team.”
