Student stories

My time at Surrey has improved my chances of employability immensely. The beauty about Surrey is that they prioritise both academic and professional development, as most courses offer some sort of placement year, and really set you up for professional life once you graduate.

The past four years have been the turning point in my life, and I would not have it any other way.

I’ve definitely changed since starting at Surrey, I’ve grown in confidence and am capable of achieving the things I want to accomplish in my professional life.

I have become more independent, I easily take on more responsibilities, blend into new teams and I have started to prepare myself for the future.

I have loved living at university, meeting friends and the culture. I am an international student, so it is very different to home, but I’m so happy I get to experience life in the UK.

It’s great to collaborate with people from different backgrounds on group assignments and has been one of the things I’ve enjoyed most as an international student.
