University of Aberdeen Speciality : English Language & Literature
programme: English and Creative Writing

The University of Aberdeen was generally a very positive experience for me. My course was greatly interesting with a wide range of texts and a diverse set of authors who touched on very specific issues. My professors were always keen to help me and the advise that they gave has never failed to help me improve. My class mates were also fantastic and we always worked together to help ourselves with the course and guide each other through exam periods.

The University of Aberdeen has a fantastic English programme. In addition to a set of staff this is dedicated to their students, the curriculum provides an engaging set of books for students, and classes are always lively. The one thing I wish for is more creative writing courses.
Overall, the University of Aberdeen is a global community with an emphasis on discussion and classroom engagement. I have found a great community here. After transferring from a university in the United States, I was nervous about starting school abroad, never having been to Aberdeen before. But switching to UoA was the best thing I could have done.
All in all, I have really enjoyed my time studying in Aberdeen, and I would recommend the uni to students looking for an engaging environment in a fun town.
