Student Story

MBA 2025
Saniya Junaid

The LUMS MBA is a transformative programme for career-driven individuals. It sharpens critical thinking and problem-solving skills through a case-based approach and provides access to diverse perspectives from fellow students, faculty, and guest speakers. With a broad range of courses, the programme ensures a well-rounded education. These features equip you with the tools and network needed to succeed and expand your outlook. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to advance in their career.

  • I choose management sciences because it exposes one to a variety of disciplines and functional fields (marketing, supply chain, operations, organization behaviour), any of which one can choose to specialise in later in the degree with the flexibility of degree electives. Furthermore, its inclination towards equipping students with data related tools and theory is a useful skill to have.

  • My four-year journey at LUMS taught me the importance of persistence and self-belief in making the impossible possible, a motto that continues to be an integral part of my life. I was fortunate enough to study from some highly experienced and competent teachers who continue to inspire me to date. Despite majoring in Accounting and Finance, I got the chance to take courses from other disciplines such as languages, law, and computer science, an opportunity one rarely gets elsewhere.
