MA GLOBAL FINANCIAL JOURNALISM, CITY UNIVERSITY

After completing my undergraduate in Economics, I aim to continue my studies in order to pursue my passion for media. I wish to excel and gain further insight during my time in City.

Coming from an ethnic minority background, my opportunities have been very limited - so receiving this scholarship has left me with nothing but gratitude. I’m excited to start this course and hope to encourage other Muslims to aspire to higher education, so there's more representation within the journalism field.

I look forward to the next chapter in my studies to develop my knowledge and skills further within journalism and to give back to the community through mentorship.
