“The accessibility and approachability of the lecturers at Solent was exceptional. Their courses were modelled to solve real-world problems and prepare us for work. For example, one module included a requirement for us to critique up to 4 machine-learning models before deciding on one to solve a forecasting problem we were given. This was a recurring theme in job interviews; for each piece of analysis, I was often asked what alternatives I considered and sacrificed and why.”

“The master’s deepened my technical knowledge as it gave me an understanding of the technical aspects of sustainable building design, such as energy efficiency, renewable energy, water conservation, and green building materials. This knowledge is essential for designing and implementing sustainable building solutions, especially for retrofit projects.”
