My course
The course is well-balanced and introduces us to a diverse range of skills, such as CAD, coding, design and laboratory techniques, which are beneficial to future employment.
I enjoyed studying technological entrepreneurship during my Master's year, as it provided a unique perspective on technical development where I learnt the various aspects involved in launching innovative product developments. I also enjoyed the modules focused on sustainability, they reiterated the importance of the field and highlighted why research and development of materials is crucial.
The Department's smaller size was incredibly beneficial, it allowed lecturers and professors to really get to know us and I always felt comfortable seeking their help.
The facilities on the course were excellent. We had access to the newly built STEMLab and the world-class characterisation centre, both of which greatly enhanced my learning experience by allowing me to cement my theoretical knowledge through practical work.
