"I have found studying online to be perfect for me. I have a full-time job, a family and the pressures that go along with those! Studying online has allowed me to study at my own pace in my own time. The online learning environment is excellent and I have enjoyed interacting with my peers and tutors in the forum environment. The pre-recorded lectures are well structured and concise. The lecture slides are great. I have found the ability to re-watch sections of lectures until I understood the concept that was being explained very helpful."
David Bain, Protection Engineer at Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN), recent graduate of the MSc Electrical Power Systems Engineering
