Most of you really enjoyed the residential school.
We did...
We continue to have two compulsory residential schools in our BEng (Hons) qualification and we see it as a great way for students and the central academics who have created the learning materials for the qualification to meet one another. It is also an opportunity for students to see learning advisers and careers guidance staff face-to-face. We also use the venue as an opportunity to get a representative over from one or more of the engineering institutions.
