Student Christian Turner Politics PhD I’ve been extremely fortunate to have collaborated extensively with a range of academics at both the University and across the United Kingdom.
Student Dudu Pektunc Music BMus (Hons) There is a wide range of genres and module choice within the course – I can learn classical violin performance while also studying popular music analysis and musicology. There are huge opportunities to collaborate with other students from different year groups and courses, especially in the Music Project module.

Student Catherine Oluwakemi Ojo Economics MRes The MRes students are fully absorbed into the School of Economics and provided with all resources needed to prepare adequately for a successful PhD programme.
Student Ahmed Afzal Aerospace Engineering MEng My placement year really helped me to grow as an engineer and become more confident in my ability to solve engineering problems in industry. I’ve also gained invaluable teamworking experience and greatly improved my communication and time management skills.
Student Cassina Subero Business Management and Spanish BSc (Hons) 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.
Student Sam Pester We’re so lucky to have such incredible teaching staff and lecturers in the language department and due to the smaller cohort sizes, they really get to know every individual they teach.
Student Tom Illsley Undoubtedly the best part of this course is the variation in content. Throughout my first year alone we have studied history, culture, politics, translation, early language development and linguistic history, just to name a few.
Graduate Elizabeth Opeagbe Financial Mathematics BSc (Hons) My degree wasn't easy. It taught me a work ethic that I retain now and one that allowed me to complete my part-time masters with such dedication. Not only did Surrey force me to grow up, as it was the first time I'd been independent, but it also offered me a solid foundation for the rest of my life.
