The learning style of the course is a mix of interactive lectures, practical workshops, case studies, and industry visits. The tutors have been exceptional in guiding us through the curriculum, offering personalised feedback on assignments, and facilitating discussions that bridge theoretical concepts with real-world applications.
I liked the creative aspects of the units and the freedom we were given to take the coursework in our own direction. The teaching style and support offered made the whole course fun and stress-free.
The features I enjoy the most about my course are the external events, industry talks and meeting with industry experts. These have allowed me to have a hands-on experience and learning of the industry.
