Peter Russell

Having studied a BSc in Forensic Computing elsewhere, Peter came to Birmingham City University for a part-time Masters course. He has been able to put the knowledge he’s gained into action in his role at the UK arm of Austrian and Swedish steel manufacturer Böhler Uddeholm. 

“I chose this course because I live and work in Birmingham and I was interested in the Enterprise Systems Management course, particularly because of the ties the University has with SAP.

“The course was well-structured with good facilities, and the support from staff was mostly excellent. It is very relevant for my role as IT Manager and I knew it would assist my development within my company, and benefit the company itself.

“I’ve enjoyed the direct relevance the course contents have to my job role, unlike my BSc degree and many other courses I’ve been on!

“I work for Böhler Uddeholm UK as IT Manager. Although the environment is owned by our parent company in Austria, we conduct local developments and configuration changes for BUUK in conjunction with them.
