“Theatre Studies graduate”

Overall
Brunel University has a quickly developing campus with great studying facilities. As part of our studies we were offered to take an additional free International Language course (I did Portuguese), we had one 2 hour class every week for several months and received a certificate stating our language level upon the completion of the course.
With regards to my main subject of studies (Theatre), it was amazing! I had a very strong team of professors to lead me throughout my studies and found all the lectures extremely interesting. It was great three years and I enjoyed a whole range of extra curricular activities related to my area of studies (Such as drama and musical theatre societies, lighting and music design courses and more).

Pros

Cons
a little far out from central London (takes about and hour and a half to get to lectures if you live in central London),
