encouraged me to visit a variety

Social Opportunities
Do you have a particular interest
in a hobby or sport, and does the
university offer the opportunity to
continue with this?
What sports facilities are available?
What societies are there?
Are there good social spaces within
the university such as a Student’s Union?
Research Intensive Universities
Research intensive universities offer a very
high quality of teaching that is research led.
The research undertaken at these
universities helps to address problems
in the wider world.
