Student Profile(s)

Kenny Stevenson

My knowledge has been vastly improved thanks to the wide variety of classes offered by the fantastic teaching staff. Assignments are well explained; marks are returned in good time; and we are continually asked to provide feedback to improve the running of the classes. It has been a challenging but highly enjoyable year, and I am continuing my studies to PhD level.
