Grace Lilley

BSc (Hons) Engineering Management (Top-Up)

"I've had access to fantastic staff support throughout my degree, and I've learnt and developed so many transferable skills that I know will make me attractive to employers in the Engineering industry. We've also had quite a few guest speakers in to discuss their experiences, which has been really helpful and quite inspiring, really!"

"I wanted to do a degree in electrical engineering, so the Electrical Electronic Engineering course here seemed like a clear winner. While the modules taught are fairly similar to other universities, the content is guided by what industry employers need now, which gives the course here a bit more of an edge."
