I chose º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ for its reputation in both sport and engineering. The course I wanted to study looked amazing and the facilities that were available were something I hadn’t experienced before.
The structure of learning on my course is great. I feel as though at any point I am able to approach lecturers and ask questions about what we are learning and to talk about any problems I'm facing. I really enjoyed my Thermodynamics and Phase Equilibrium module. The lecturers found a fun way to teach something that was quite technical, and I had never studied anything like it before.
To anyone considering studying Biomaterials, I’d say definitely do it. I originally applied to study Chemical Engineering but didn't get a place on the course; I was instead made an offer to study my current course. It’s even better than I could have imagined, and I would encourage anyone to do it.
When I graduate, I hope to get the best job I can, and I believe that having a degree from º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ will provide me with the tools necessary to achieve this.
Aside from the academic aspect, the social atmosphere on campus is one of the best. There is a really strong sense of community across the university - between your halls, course mates, and especially your sport teammates. Having a large campus really creates a bubble for the students to live and work in. You’re able to get the most out of everything and make true friends through your course and sport.
On the whole, º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ has inspired me to look for more opportunities and do everything I can to better myself and develop as a person.
