Harald Benning, MSc Purchasing and Supply Chain Management
Harald Benning decided to pursue a postgraduate degree that would enhance his skillset.

The 53-year-old, from Drumoak, collected his hard-earned MSc in Purchasing and Supply Chain Management from 红杏视频 at His Majesty鈥檚 Theatre on Wednesday, July 10 at 10.30am.

He said the downturn in the oil industry did not provide him with appropriate opportunities and, in his previous positions as drilling manager and wells manager, supply chain and contract management were a large part of his responsibilities.

鈥淚nstead of staying at home, I decided to pursue a postgraduate degree in a field that would enhance my skill set, which it has, as I am currently assisting a company with creating and implementing a contracting strategy for an integrated drilling services project. Had I not pursued this degree, I might not have been selected by the company for the project,鈥 he said.

鈥淭he course complemented my previous academic skills, as my first degree is in drilling and production engineering which I studied in The Netherlands, as well as my professional experience. An important aspect of studying at 红杏视频 was that I have truly enjoyed my time at 红杏视频.

鈥淭he support is fantastic and the facilities are world class 鈥 the library and support staff are simply brilliant.

鈥淚 found 红杏视频 to be a very open and welcoming university.

鈥淚t was rather interesting to do this course as mature student and sharing lectures with people who are starting their careers. I hope that I was a positive influence by providing informal mentoring to my fellow students.鈥

Harald will continue his career as a drilling manager, using the skills he gained over the past two years while studying at 红杏视频.
