Meet ISC students
Fahad Bin Abdulaziz
Fahad from Saudi Arabia studied on the Engineering, Science and Mathematics Foundation programme and is now studying for a degree in Mechanical Engineering.
"Hi, I'm Fahad from Saudi Arabia, I came here to begin my undergraduate studies at University of Surrey. As an overseas student, however, I was required to do a foundation course and fortunately I applied for the ISC, the place where you can get the knowledge you need mixed with loads of fun and memorable times.
In terms of the academic gain, the course might seem tough or boring to some students at the beginning, but believe it or not, as a first year engineering student many if not all of the topics we covered at the ISC, we are just re-taking them now.
So the ISC does make you a step ahead of the others. Apart from the academic life, the ISC will be your second home and will give valuable experience in your social life as well, since the small facility area helps you to make friends not only with your classmates but with your wonderful teachers and friendly staff
The ISC paves the way to your academic and social life at University."
