Student stories

In the second semester, we visited Queen Alexander Hospital in Portsmouth and Royal Surrey County Hospital which helped me decide what to do for my career.

I have never found a team that is as supporting, encouraging and caring than my fellow peers and tutoring staff.

I am thankful to Surrey in more ways than I can express. There are opportunities everywhere: be vigilant and be ready to face challenges.

The staff are an absolute joy. Knowledgeable, insightful, and always willing to give advice. They are all such a huge part of why I enjoyed this course.

My time at Surrey has made me open to new opportunities, new cultures and new ways of living. I’ve grown so much and become a person I am truly proud of.

As an international student, the University’s dedication to making me feel at home has been remarkable. Dedicated services and resources, coupled with a commitment to inclusivity and cultural diversity, eased my homesickness. The University of Surrey ensured that my experience as an international student was more than just studying abroad – it was about finding a new home away from home.

There are a lot of external speakers on the course, including from the Royal Surrey Hospital and the National Physical Laboratory. They really help to widen your understanding of medical physics applications.

My lecturers have all been engaging and encouraging. They welcome questions and are happy to have one-to-one discussions.
