Here are some of the main reasons I chose to study at The University of Chichester:

_________

1. Small Class Sizes

This allows you to have more tailored support from lecturers and there’s more time for one-to-one tutorials and invaluable assignment feedback. This really helped me reach my full academic and creative potential in all my assessments.

Chichester offers a wide range of academic, careers, and support services which are a great asset to the wider university community.

4. Facilities

The Uni has amazing facilities on both campuses. The Tech Park in Bognor Regis is home to the Creative Industries and Engineering departments.

The state of the art equipment replicates an industry setting perfectly and inspired me to pursue my passion outside of the classroom.

The smaller class sizes also means lecturers always know you by name which makes lecturers feel more personal and engaging.
