What our students say
"Choosing to go to Penryn set in the heart of Cornwall surrounded by wonderful landscapes was just so appealing to me. The fact I am living so close to the coast is a dream come true! It is also the perfect location for geology considering all the amazing places and geological formations right on our doorstep.
Term one was mostly building the foundations to make sure that everyone was at the same place for term two. Even though I hadn't previously studied geology, all of the geology-based courses have the same modules for the first year. In years two to three we can choose different pathways as more options become available to us, which is nice because it means we have the choice to tailor our course depending on what we’re most interested in as we progress through our degree."
