"From my first interaction with representatives of the University, I knew that this would be a fun, interactive and welcoming environment which would help me to do my best in my degree, but also enjoy myself outside of classes."
"I decided to study at the ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ because of the great course content and student life.
Being a student at the University is fantastic! Even though COVID-19 put a dampener on some aspects of student life, the University staff have really showed us they care about our well-being.
The teaching staff are excellent, they are very competent and share our passion for all the topics being covered. The education facilities are top class and itÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™s pretty awesome that the University uses the latest technology, and is paperless as much as possible."
"There really is never a dull moment, whether it be a society event, fun with your friends or taking in the sunset at the Hoe, ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ makes for a top-tier student experience."
"Some of my favourite memories from my university experience so far are definitely nights in with my flat mates.
IÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™m very lucky to live with a group of seven amazing people. All of us come from different backgrounds but share similar energy, which makes for an amazing time when relaxing, laughing and exchanging stories!"
"The biggest difference to my home country is the weather! IÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™d definitely trade in ÂÌñ»»ÆÞÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™s cold and windy days for the beaches and sunshine of Barbados. But my favourite difference is that thereÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™s much more variety in terms of shops and entertainment here."
"Come with an open mind, be prepared to work hard and have fun! ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ is a great place and the University is very welcoming to international students. As youÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™ll hear, there are lots of exciting things to do ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ“ but remember why youÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™re coming to university.
Prioritise your work, stay organised, and your university experience will be the best possible!"
The courses are structured in a way that gives students wide-ranging knowledge that we can then narrow down to our specific interests, and the lecturers always make themselves available to ensure that we are performing at our best."
