stronger
interface
between student
and lecturer.
Jake

It feels a lot less
like someone just
lecturing to us
and
is much more a
group effort in
working and
learning.
Beki
, MSc Forensic Psychology
You are expected to do
a lot of reading around
each topic
–
it is not enough
to just learn what you are given
during the lectures.
Nicolo
, MRes Medical Sciences
You are treated
on a similar level
to other
academic
colleagues
.
Kenneth
, MSc E-Business
(Information Systems)
As a postgraduate student
I am expected to do
more self-directed
learning
where module
leaders provide guidance
and supervision.
Anubhi
, MSc Automation
and Control
Smaller classes make
learning more
interactive.
Mark
, MA International
Politics (Critical Geopolitics)
The postgraduate course has
proved a lot more challenging
than I expected and this
has really helped
push my
learning and develop
my skills
.

I am enjoying studying
in
such a diverse
and interesting
environment.
