The course is great! There are amazing tutors and a few that's not so, but I guess this is everywhere (I have nothing to compare it to!) A lot of hands on experience from year 2 and 3 with case based learning. Nice range of placements with some areas you can choose, and have guaranteed 1 of 5 choices for one of the placements. A lot of sustainability as topic and 3rd year has a designated module for sustainability leadership which is a nice change. Time goes quickly and it's nice it's a faster 3 year course! read more
