The best thing about the course is undoubtedly the teaching staff. Not only do they challenge you to achieve your best, but they genuinely care about your progress and want you to do well.

All of the lecturers were outstanding, they became like friends with great support on the topics studied. The culture and diversity of Aston plays a huge part too. Teamwork is a great way to learn and with such a varied student background you learn a lot off each other.
