Francesc Valls Mascaró MSc Electrochemistry (now called MSc Electrochemistry with Battery Technologies) 2018

I felt very supported by all teachers and staff while studying at Southampton. I really enjoyed the modules, and my lecturers know how to motivate students and that was reflected in my coursework. I consider having an interdisciplinary knowledge fundamental for a scientist and I was able to study modules outside of my core course area as part of my degree.

I chose to study at Southampton because it is the best place in Europe to study electrochemistry.

The facilities at Highfield Campus are extraordinary and I believe this University offers great services to students, like mentoring and support to write a CV, which may differentiate this University to others around Europe. There’s always someone to help you in many aspects of your student life.

Growing as a person at Southampton

I’ve never grown that fast before! Moving to a foreign country was a new start for me. Surpassing the comfort zone and facing new challenges transformed my whole personality. Now I am achieving results in all the areas of my life that I never thought I could achieve before. Also, I found opportunities like joining the Innovation Business Programme very interesting to help me grow professionally.
