During his time on the MSc Business Analytics (graduating in 2024), Chen Wu developed confidence in efficiently solving real business problems using advanced programming models and strengthened critical thinking skills through real-world projects and teamwork. The programme pushed Chen out of their comfort zone, fostering expressiveness, collaboration, and a strong sense of self.

Chen found UCL School of Management’s career events and alumni activities invaluable for networking and connecting with professionals across banking, consulting, blockchain, and high-tech industries. These interactions provided valuable industry insights and broadened their understanding of career possibilities. Since graduating, Chen has been actively involved with the alumni network, participating as a panellist at the Alumni Panel Talk for new Business Analytics students at Rich Mix (2024) and serving as a panellist at the Business Analytics Projects Alumni Panel in Canary Wharf (2025).
