My Story:

Andrew drove past Truro campus regularly, but never thought he would be a student himself. After an unexpected change in life allowed him to do 3 years with the University Centre, he was excited to study a subject he has been passionate about for a long time and get back into education.

Andrew said: “It’s something i have always wanted to do, so when the opportunity came up, i jumped on it”

“Archaeology is so diverse, there are so many different areas you can go into with it and so many things it can unlock for you. If you are interested in History and Archaeology, this course really does open up so many avenues for you”

“The lecturers have been fantastic and so supportive, whilst studying on site but also with home life”

“I would tell anyone looking to do the course – go for it, you might not get the opportunity again”
