Experience what it’s really like to study at UM:

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.
