The people and the connections I made, while studying at the University of Strathclyde, were easily the best aspect of my student experience. Through the plentitude of clubs and societies, I formed friendships and interests that are still prevalent in my current career and day-to-day life.
On the academic side, I enjoyed my course and I felt that the professors were helpful and approachable. The information and the resources we had at hand were of tremendous importance and helped me understand and get to know topics, people and subjects I normally would have never come into contact with.
In terms of the campus, there is a clear move towards more investment in facilities and renovation. However, further investment is required for the student halls and a few of the older buildings. The halls are the most prominent example I can remember, and they are the only negative experience I can quote since they were not in the best of conditions during my stay.
With all that being said, I enjoyed the world of opportunities the University of Strathclyde opened up to me. To this very day, I can recall some of the best and not-so-good moments with a smile and even though I’ve moved on and I’m far from Glasgow, I still appreciate the four years I spent at the university.
