Student review

I really enjoyed my degree-I did a double degree in agriculture and law. I loved how enthusiastic the teachers were to help me understand the links beteeen the two and fostered my genuine interests in both areas. I enjoyed being on campus as I could dedicate my self to my degree and didn't have to balance it with other life

Student review

The course has already provided me with more knowledge of the workings in agriculture than I’ve learnt in an entire life on the land. Due to this I cannot recommend the course enough to people with a passion for agriculture that want a degree in consultancy or the like.
