    Business Analytics Andrea Sabia scaled

    Despite being the youngest employee where I work, I feel extremely well prepared for the responsibilities of my role as a Business Analyst, which I think is largely due to the innovative studies at Southampton. Lecturers really encourage team working, and debating ideas and techniques with my peers and professors truly enhanced my experience.
