Student stories

Who said you need expensive equipment to prototype your projects? I have been using development boards, breakout boards and breadboards to prototype and start designing my future projects.

My lecturers are enthusiastic, supportive and passionate about the subjects they teach, and this has inspired me to learn more and work even harder.

I’m researching the interplay between attachment dimensions (the processes used to assess attachment in children and adults) and nostalgia, with the aim of using nostalgia as a mechanism to boost attachment security.

My time at Surrey has made me a more confident and competent nurse. I can now prescribe medications to patients, which is incredibly empowering, as other nurses now come to me instead of junior doctors.

I previously completed an independent/supplementary prescribing (V300) module at Surrey, so knew first-hand that the teaching was excellent. The course is also well known within my trust, which is connected to Surrey.

I was over the moon when I successfully ran a social experiment, investigating emotion dynamics and mental health in male-female couples, using industry-standard equipment.

The support I’ve received from my School, my University supervisors and my sponsors at Thames Water Utilities Limited has been excellent. They’ve helped guide my research so that it’s both novel and useful.

The fact Surrey is a campus university was a key selling point in deciding to come here. I liked the community feel and the fact everything is close by and convenient.
