Emily Cooksey


BA (Hons) Events Management graduate Emily Cooksey credits both the academic and emotional support she received from her lecturers as one of the reasons she was able to achieve a first class degree.

The University of Sunderland has provided me with endless opportunities. Studying BA (Hons) Events Management has taught me not only how to plan an event but basic study skills for assignment writing, marketing, research methods, preparing me for my dissertation and experiencing events; helping me view events from an attendees perspective.

Throughout all of this, my confidence has developed along with my team working skills and leadership experience. I cannot thank the lecturers enough for the constant support both academically and emotionally throughout my time at the University with their open door policy. I know I wouldn’t have achieved a first class degree without them and would wholeheartedly recommend the course to anyone interested in the sector."
