‘‘
When completing my UCAS form I initially selected several of the
top universities for civil engineering without an idea as to which
would be my first choice. Having been to the open days however,
Bath easily stood out as my favourite. The Department itself boasts
many exceptional lecturers who couple immense knowledge in their
field with a very personal teaching style that gives the Department
an exceptionally friendly ethos. Reading such a vocational degree,
I thought it very important to gain some practical experience in the
industry, and earning some good money was a bonus. Through the
Department’s close association with industry-leading companies,
I gained sponsorship for my final year and have since joined my
sponsor company as a graduate.
