Graduate Manuel Bradicic Computer Science BSc (Hons) I joined Surrey’s boat club with the initial intention of getting fit and exploring a new sport – not realising that it would lead me to become part of a tight-knit family, creating wonderful memories and forming lifelong friendships.
Student Samira Ali International Relations BSc (Hons) I was always determined to go study abroad and the main reason I choose Surrey was because of the study abroad option and the vast number of universities I could pick from.
Graduate Alex Bronsdon Spanish with German BA (Hons) I spent four months in Spain and six months in Germany and the opportunity to use my language in both those countries was something I thought would be really valuable to improve my language skills.
Student Edwin Gilson English Literature PhD A real highlight for me was having an article published in a well-known journal in my field. This came out of a chapter I wasn’t expecting to write at the start of the thesis, on a novel I read during the PhD.
Student Rhyne Chambers Modern Languages, French and Spanish BA (Hons) I like the fact the Surrey allows you to have a 50/50 split between your two languages choices, as that was something other universities didn’t offer. I also like that students are given a choice of subject for written assignments.
Student Alice Brooks Modern Languages (French and Spanish) BA (Hons) We have access to a huge range of books and materials, computers with specialised software for language learners, and staff on hand during the weekdays to provide support. The classrooms also boast features to support listening practice.
Student Jack Bell Media and Communication BSc (Hons) I like how there is such a broad variety of modules that can link with other disciplines such as sociology, criminology and politics.
Graduate Amelia Lunnon Business Management BSc (Hons) I was really impressed by the flexibility of my degree, as I was able to do both a study abroad semester and a placement year.
Student Brittany Potts Veterinary Biosciences BSc Studying abroad has definitely helped me decide on my career path.
