Because of the smaller groups, tutors can actively contribute to our growth, I feel like they want to see us succeed.
What struck me most when first started here was the lack of negative energy, peer pressure and competition, which is very refreshing for an honours programme.
It's for people who want to do more than one thing and want to be able to combine courses however they want
I have been more confident than ever to speak out for my opinion, but also to approach others to ask for help.
My first semester at UCM confirmed that I made the right choice.
My first impression, when I first visited UCM's common room was: feels good, I wanna stay here.

It's Master Your Future week at UCM! Tonight, students had the opportunity to talk to alumni about life after UCM (photos below).
"The idea of Master Your Future week is that we start thinking about what’s next. We spend so much time at UCM and are so invested in it, that sometimes we need a push to think beyond the bubble. That’s why we encourage students to talk to Alumni, participate in workshops for Masters applications, and contact the career services."
Tomorrow there’s a workshop by the writing centre on how to write a motivation letter! Interested?
