Student Arnie Veterinary Medicine and Science BVMSci I fondly remember my lambing placement during Easter break – waking up and checking on the lambing pens to find newborn lambs bleating was an absolute joy.
Student Charlotte Q Biological Sciences BSc As an animal nutritionist at Marwell Zoo I gained insight into every stage of the process, from species’ natural history and dietary guidelines to preparing and presenting diets in ways that prioritise health and welfare.
Graduate Kirsty F-W Midwifery BSc I am passionate about midwifery because of the maternity care I received as a teen mother. The midwives who took care of me inspired me to want to pass it on to others. I now work as a midwife in the acute unit, mainly the delivery suite.
Graduate Rachel A Midwifery BSc I have secured a permanent contract as a midwife in a local hospital, rotating between the wards and my own community clinic. I can now help new students working with us from the University of Surrey.
Student Eleri Theatre Production BA (Hons) The amount of support I got at GSA and Surrey was massive which I really liked, as I always knew who to go to when I had questions or needed extra support.
Student Fatoumatta Biomedical Science BSc I completed a three-month summer internship at the Medical Research Council Unit The Gambia with the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and gained a multitude of technical and professional skills.
Graduate Dr Wiebke Antje Degenhardt Nutritional Medicine MSc One of the most rewarding aspects of postgraduate life at Surrey was connecting with students from a wide range of professional, cultural, and international backgrounds.
Student Lauren Law LLB (Hons) I found doing a split exchange/placement year best for me as I was able to gain experience of both working and studying abroad. I also had a lot of support from the University of Surrey to find a six month placement which I was initially worried about.
Student Callistus O. Computer Science BSc (Hons) Surrey combines a strong learning environment with a vibrant campus culture and a diverse community. For me, university has never been only about lectures and assignments; it is about discovering new interests, building relationships, gaining confidence, and developing as a person. Surrey makes that possible through its campus, people, and student activities.
