Student stories

I have already secured a job as a social scientist at Forest Research. It’s a great role where I can apply lots of what I've learnt from my studies to real research.

My time with Balfour Beatty sparked my ambition to become a Chartered Engineer starting in Ground Engineering, and to pursue my plan of becoming a leader in the construction industry.

The course gives you a toolkit that you can access at any time, and makes sure this toolkit is full of as many different techniques and colours so you can feel confident in your own ability when performing.

Studying here at Surrey has definitely broadened my horizons and also widened my networks, which is the one thing that people in the hospitality field need the most!

If you have the means to study a masters, do it. Honestly, it shapes you as a person, changes the way you think, and helps you figure out things. You will also get the chance to meet amazing people.

The experiences and opportunities provided by Surrey have enhanced various skills that are highly valued in the job market. These include adaptability, communication skills, organisational abilities, critical thinking, and intercultural competence.

Studying abroad as an international student is highly rewarding. I would definitely recommend doing a PhD here to any international students considering their next step.

What I love about my course is the diverse mix of individuals coming from different fields. This allows for a rich exchange of perspectives and ideas, enhancing the overall learning experience.
