We've asked our Queen Mary Summer School students what they thought of their experience with us and how this affected their professional and personal life. Here are some of their answers!
My summer at Queen Mary, University of London was incredibly valuable, both academically and personally. I took two courses in the span of 6 weeks and these classes were not only informative but also engaging, offering a fresh perspective on familiar topics, ultimately giving me a deeper understanding of British history and culture. — Benjamin, from the University of Texas at Austin, Summer School 2024
My summer school experience was truly transformative. The course opened my eyes to the intricate details often overlooked in art, broadening my appreciation for the humanities and enriching my worldview. Beyond academics, the experience had an immense impact on my personal growth. I made friends for life, as everyone was incredibly welcoming and our bond grew through shared experiences. — Parthavi, Stevens Institute of Technology, Summer School 2024
Beyond the academic aspects of the summer programme, I had an opportunity to meet amazing people from around the world with whom we could always explore London after classes as well as take part in the organised trips to London landmarks such as the London Eye and Buckingham Palace. Overall, the programme was highly rewarding and would recommend it to everyone interested!— Oskar, Summer School 2024
