Safa chose to study in the UK because of Peter Pan?

Safa’s love for the UK began with watching Peter Pan and seeing all those iconic London scenes. But her decision to study here was about much more than that.

She wanted to study in English, build a strong foundation in Aerospace Engineering and found the University of Lancashire’s online event a great way to meet fellow prospective students and her potential lecturers before making her decision.

Now, she’s studying Aerospace Engineering with Pilot Studies and has found the University of Lancashire to be a warm, welcoming and affordable place to study.

Didn’t get the grades you expected today? That’s okay. Listen to how applying through Clearing turned out to be a hidden gem for Josh. He was able to gain experience on a placement at BAE Systems, then successfully get onto their graduate scheme after graduating. Josh applied through to one of our aerospace engineering with foundation year programmes.

During the first week of the academic year, our students gather to work on a project to introduce a pavilion to a pre-existing space on campus. It involves students from Architecture, Quantity Surveying, Building Surveying and Construction Project Management. It’s a great chance for everyone to work together and discover how all the different areas of the built environment professions work together.
