MBA STUDENT OF THE YEAR IN ASSOCIATION WITH INSENDI, A STUDY GROUP COMPANY
AMBA’s MBA Student of the Year award, in association with insendi, a Study Group company, plays a pivotal role in supporting AMBA’s pledge to promote the MBA degree as the leading international business qualification. The award recognises students who have shown exceptional career potential and who AMBA believes can act as ambassadors for the high quality of accredited MBAs, and the opportunities these programmes provide for students from a wide range of different personal and professional backgrounds. The gold award was presented to Monique Farquharson, Aston Business School, Aston University (UK). Monique Farquharson was the first ever winner of the Aston Enterprise Scholarship. She triumphed over hundreds of students to secure this prestigious fully-funded scholarship and join the full time Aston MBA programme. She has seized this opportunity by engaging in consultancy work with four different companies, securing an internship, helping to deliver TEDx Aston University, and becoming a global ambassador. Monique completed the Global Business Challenge, and was named ‘Global Business Champion’ – one of just four champions from a group of more than 100 overseas students from seven different universities around the world. Again, this was a hotly contested category, but the judges decided to award silver to Patsy McNeil, UCL School of Management, University College London (UK). The panel awarded bronze to Yunfei Yang, School of Management, Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) (China). All our award bronze and silver winners will receive a certificate, and the winners will receive a cut-glass trophy. AMBA & BGA would like to once again congratulate all the winners and the finalists. We would like to thank our award and event sponsors Bargo, Wharton Research Data Services, McGraw Hill Education, Kortext, and insendi a Study Group Company – who made the event possible – as well as our esteemed panel of judges who gave up so much time to select the winners. Final thanks must go to all the Business Schools that entered the awards, for the work you do and for your unfailing passion and dedication to responsible management, world-class business education, and for going the extra mile. You inspire all of us every day. We very much look forward to welcoming many of you – in person – to our Global Conference, which will take place from 15-18 May 2022.
