How has your experience of the programme the university and your placements been so far?

So far, I have enjoyed my time at the University of Gibraltar; the programme itself has proved to be interesting, and the lecturers know how to keep you actively involved and thinking. Regarding the placement, it is a hands-on means of finding out where the maritime industry currently stands. This gives you a perfect insight into exactly where things stand and the environment you will enter upon graduation. Although I am focussed on the programme and graduating right now, I look forward to seeing where this degree will take me.

To people thinking about studying here, I would say go for it! Professional and vocationally driven faculty, great facilities and the potential to meet and study with likeminded individuals!
