Student stories

I loved every minute of my Professional Training placements and I am sure you will too: just say 'yes'!

...if you want a vibrant, all positive vibes place that will teach you a lot – this is MA FADA.

Placement was the best way to get valuable work experience and cement my theoretical experiences at university. I feel well-equipped to join the engineering workforce post-graduation as a result of my placement.

I wanted to learn more about telecommunications and find solutions to improve connectivity for people and businesses. Working towards a PhD allowed me to pursue this goal through research.

Going to Sydney was without a doubt the best six months of my life. I’ve always wanted to visit Sydney; the rest of Australia, so when I saw there was a six-month programme at Surrey, it was one of the driving factors in choosing Surrey Uni.

During my time studying my course, I have been particularly fond of the wide variety of topics covered. This allowed me to discover which areas of Computer Science I enjoyed most.

The support given by faculty and the mentorship provided throughout the course have significantly impacted my learning journey: they've enhanced my academic experience and given me confidence in my clinical skills.
