PhD Law

Westminster has a very welcoming environment and is committed to building strong relationships, societies, and communities across its different campuses and schools. 

Why did you choose the University of Westminster?

I first joined Westminster in January 2022, when I studied for my Master’s in Law (Corporate Finance Law). In September 2025, I returned to Westminster to begin my PhD. Westminster made a lasting impact on me the first time, and my favourite aspect of the university is the strong communication between professors and students. Each instructor has helped guide me toward pathways that align with my goals and has even contributed to helping me discover career aspirations that closely match my academic focus.

Westminster has a very welcoming environment and is committed to building strong relationships, societies, and communities across its different campuses and schools. This is a key factor that enables international students to develop social skills and make the most of their international experience.

What would your advice be to someone considering studying at Westminster?

I advise students to make this social aspect an integral part of their study experience, allow yourselves to learn about different cultures while holding on to your values. Study, network, expand your cultural views.
