What students say about materials-science

Great buildings and location with great transport links to major cities. Being taught by people who are the best in that field and being able to contribute to their research at an early time in your studies. The tutorial system with very few people in classes making learning much more interactive.

The teachers! They are amazing!! Every seminar tutor or lecturer I had were so kind and knowledgeable and so wonderful The topics were very varied so I feel like I generally got a good pick of what I wanted to learn. I really enjoyed that The students are all super friendly in my opinion, I made more friends than I ever expected to and not only in my course. The facilities available online and in the library vast and so helpful. Overall, I am so grateful for my experience here
