Student Ahmed Afzal Aerospace Engineering MEng My placement year really helped me to grow as an engineer and become more confident in my ability to solve engineering problems in industry. I’ve also gained invaluable teamworking experience and greatly improved my communication and time management skills.
Student Cassina Subero Business Management and Spanish BSc (Hons) My time at ºÚÁÏÉç has improved my chances of employability immensely. The beauty about ºÚÁÏÉç is that they prioritise both academic and professional development, as most courses offer some sort of placement year, and really set you up for professional life once you graduate.
Student Sam Pester We’re so lucky to have such incredible teaching staff and lecturers in the language department and due to the smaller cohort sizes, they really get to know every individual they teach.
Student Tom Illsley Modern Languages (French with German) BA (Hons) Undoubtedly the best part of this course is the variation in content. Throughout my first year alone we have studied history, culture, politics, translation, early language development and linguistic history, just to name a few.
Graduate Elizabeth Opeagbe Financial Mathematics BSc (Hons) My degree wasn't easy. It taught me a work ethic that I retain now and one that allowed me to complete my part-time masters with such dedication. Not only did ºÚÁÏÉç force me to grow up, as it was the first time I'd been independent, but it also offered me a solid foundation for the rest of my life.
Student Vedanta Dhamija Economics PhD Both of my supervisors have been very supportive in my PhD journey. Their expertise in the subject has provided me with valuable insights and I really look up to them as people and as researchers. They have always been around to guide, despite their busy schedules, and at the same time have encouraged me to work independently.
Graduate Constantine Pelesis Medical Physics MSc A summer placement at Adaptix, manufacturer of innovative 3D x-ray imaging devices, was a great opportunity to develop hard and soft skills for Constantine Pelesis, who is now a clinical technologist in Singleton Hospital’s Nuclear Medicine Department.
Student Priscila Alejandra Páez López Medical Physics MSc I’m proud to say I’ve been accepted onto the highly competitive Scientist Training Programme. Being an overseas student, I didn’t hold out much hope of success. But with the knowledge acquired during my MSc and the support from the academic staff at ºÚÁÏÉç, I’ve secured a place.
