LSE is a great place to create life-long connections and friends. There's a certain sense of community that is special to the university. The staff are hands-on and approachable. The facilities are modern and well-equipped.
I just saw this link on the Surrey alumnis page. I thought it was really cool to have the opportunity to share my experience. Congratulations Eduopinions for the work. I studied in Surrey a few years ago, I graduated in 2000 and I think the university has changed a lot since then. However, I can say that I loved studying in Surrey and that my daughter is now studying there too!

It’s a good place to study with lots of activities to do do and with a lot of useful resources as they have a 4 floor library which is great to find studies or even a quite place to study. The modules are set out perfectly with all the content already put up in advance for the students to have a look at so that they can study in advance and have a look through before lessons.
I really enjoyed my time at LCB! I've found that my skills when I entered the work force were much higher than others. I think though there was a big portion missing in recipe development and composition. True- we did learn it through memorizing the recipes, but we really were missing classes on how different ingredients affect the final textures.. how you can change them... etc. That I still am not an expert in .. and I create recipes! Ouf! Also, I don't know if you still do a month of sugar work... but that really wasn't necessary and should be either cut or minimized to just 2 lessons. It's such a niche skill to know that I would have really preferred more technical skills. I loved the old location. The "rumors" I'm getting about the new location are that it's not as good, unfortunately - that i's become more of a money focused/marketing machine. I really hope that this image can be fixed as I love LCB and enjoyed my time there! Oh also - there should be more help for students to get jobs and featuring old students accomplishments - from cookbook launches to new bakeries so that current and old students can support them.
