‘Though there are signs of global economic growth (albeit sluggish), the job market continues to pose challenges especially for young professionals looking to tap into the hyper-competitive fields of finance and law. Presented with such a landscape, DSF was a great opportunity for me to develop marketable competitive advantages by being able to learn from well-accomplished professors, share a classroom with passionate students from around the world, and gain access to the intricacies of how best to traverse the job market. At the end of the day, the onus is most definitely on the student to internalise and take advantage of all that DSF has to offer.’ Brian Park, LLM Finance and Law graduate 2013 - 2014
