Graduate Laura Loutit GSA isn’t just for however long your course is; it’s a community and support network you carry with you forever that supports and uplifts each and every member and I feel very lucky to be a little part of that. I think that’s very rare when it comes to conservatoire training, due to the competitive nature of the industry, but I know whenever I need it, GSA is always there.

Graduate Anand Sahota Surrey helped my career by having the Professional Training placement experience on my CV. It was such a game-changer in interviews.

Graduate Ho Ka Wa Food Science and Nutrition BSc I’m currently studying for a research masters in clinical research. I really enjoyed the research element of my undergraduate course and knew I wanted to keep learning but wasn’t sure if I should apply for a PhD, so this felt like the perfect middle ground.
