Getting taught at SMRU was an honour due to the many experts concentrated there, who all were very helpful. This also makes it a great place to network and get a taste of the working environment you are being prepared for during the Masters. Besides, the town of St Andrews offers many ways to enjoy and relax after study.

I really enjoyed being a student at SMRU. I found it inspiring to be surrounded by and learn from so many experts in the field, and the largely open-door policy made for a friendly atmosphere. It was awesome to get the opportunity to be a field assistant on several different research projects around Scotland
