Student stories

I’m investigating sleep in a rural South African community to identify if there’s a relationship between sleep health and HIV infection, in collaboration with the University of the Witwatersrand.

“The most amazing thing about Surrey has been the support, communication, and sense of community even during the pandemic. Despite all the uncertainty, my lecturers, the Students’ Union, and societies have continuously gone above and beyond”.

Surrey offers an extremely diverse and versatile course which has allowed me to mould the degree to my personal and professional interests".

The best aspect of my course has been the chance to work on numerous hands-on projects. These projects have been very pertinent to real world challenges – for example a group project I’ve worked on involved designing and manufacturing a robotic hand for a child.

The possibilities really are endless, and I’m excited to find out where I’m going to end up in this digitally-led future!

Surrey is an excellent university to study at. It has excellent facilities which enhance your student experience and it has a very friendly environment. I would highly recommend studying here!

I’ve been impressed with how Surrey has dealt with the pandemic. They’ve done their best to keep up student morale by setting up events where they can and opening up social spaces such as Rubix lounge, The Marquee and the lake.
