MSci Geophysics with a Year Abroad student Ruth Pike talks about her year abroad in Los Angeles.
When I came I was really nervous but the warmth and family spirit from the Department helped me a lot. Not only did I get a chance to study in a well-renowned university, but I also now have home away from home."

The unique sense of community in the RSM makes it a fantastic place to study. The high contact hours of the Geology degree naturally produces a strong rapport between professors and students, and an active social calendar makes it very easy to settle in and make friends with fellow students."

I was always interested in the fundamentals of how the world works, so was very drawn to pure maths and science, but I wanted to acquire a skill set that would help me solve global problems in the future in a practical way, so geoscience was perfect. "
