Baboo Kunalsing Askurn: I chose Portsmouth because of the high employability prospects

The University has helped me through advice and personal support by the Global team - especially before my arrival to Portsmouth - advice and personal support by the academic tutors, and individual counselling from the Careers and Employability team. Have a goal and the University will help you reach it.

My course is accredited by a professional body, The Chartered Governance Institute. It is among the few accredited courses in the UK. Portsmouth is the first university in the UK to launch a Master’s in Law which is also accredited. After graduation, I am entitled to obtain chartered status. I chose Portsmouth because of the high employability prospects.

At Portsmouth, I have learnt focus, dedication and socialising skills. I have developed my referencing skills using OSCOLA for law assignments, attended networking events and participated in careers fairs. 

I am now a graduate trainee in Corporate and International Banking at Barclays, and have held company secretarial positions in management companies. I wanted to pursue a postgraduate qualification for higher career prospects. I am ambitious and desire a senior role.
