Student experience

Nicholas Piagentini Sheward

Opening doors

"No other option would let me work at the BBC and study at a top Russell Group University at the same time. The programme is amazing and provides such a wealth of knowledge and experience. Getting a degree and already having years of experience at such a respected company has opened so many more doors for me compared to the standard degree route." - Nicholas Piagentini Sheward, BSc Digital and Technology Solutions 2021 

The best of both worlds

Sephora Poorana Varatharasan

"The Degree Apprenticeship has undoubtedly given me the tools and skills required to excel in the industry. There was a seamless integration between what I studied and the work I did as part of my role, allowing me to apply the theory I learnt at university, practically.

"The University guided me academically and provided a great support system that aligned with my firm’s (Goldman Sachs) expectations of me, allowing me to thrive in my work setting. Although an unconventional route, the degree apprenticeship is a professional extension of University and I got to experience the best of both worlds!" - Sephora Poorana Varatharasan, BSc Digital and Technology Solutions 2021
