‘Bristol was one of the few universities that satisfied my criteria of being a top university for engineering, offering integrated master’s courses, and being in a fairly large city. So I was happy to be accepted here. Electrical engineers are in high demand in the UK, so this opens a lot of doors for me.’ Abdul Nigeria (MEng Electrical and Electronic Engineering)
