Student Gabriella Culham Economics and Finance BSc (Hons) What initially attracted me to studying at Surrey, was the range of placement opportunities that were available to me during my degree. Especially as Surrey has won the National Undergraduate Employability (NUE) award for the Best University Placement Service, two years in a row.
Graduate Cameron Huggins Surrey promoted Abbott to me when I was looking for a Professional Training placement. I’m now working there, so it’s given me a great opportunity for my graduate career and beyond!
Student Abigail Lamb The Professional Training placement at Surrey was a major factor in deciding to come here. The University provides so much support in finding a placement, which in the long term is incredibly beneficial for finding a job.
Graduate Oli Jacobs Graduate Tonmeisters are an amazing network to be a part of and even now I call on people I studied with to help, either for advice, or for a project together.
Graduate Anand Sahota Mathematics BSc (Hons) Surrey helped my career by having the Professional Training placement experience on my CV. It was such a game-changer in interviews. Other candidates would reference university projects or modules, while I’d use real-world examples working on real projects. My placement helped me get ahead of the competition.
Graduate Matt Godfrey Computing and Information Technology BSc (Hons) Setting up a business in lockdown has been challenging, but my degree gave me a foundation of business knowledge that I’ve applied to this new endeavour, as well as my computing expertise.
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.
Graduate Hinako Omori In the last few years, my main projects have been touring as a session musician/programmer and I’ve felt incredibly lucky to be able to explore cities in countries I haven’t visited before, in the name of work.
Graduate Scott Tatsuta Without a doubt the best thing about my course was the ability to specialise in a field. The Creative Music Technology course allows students to study a wide range of topics and find where their strengths and interests align.
