Hear from Caroline who completed the Google IT Support Professional Certificate before enrolling in the BSc Computer Science degree program:
“If you take a professional certificate, you gain practical skills and learn things that are not taught in university. The Google IT Professional Certificate changed my life. It opened so many doors for me and I am proud to have progressed from working as a general worker at a research company to being a University of London student.
From studying the BSc Computer Science programme, my career has taken off! I have been able to make new connections which have led to further opportunities, such as joining the Space Generation Advisory Council. I can now see a positive future for myself in which I hope to go on to achieve master’s and PhD-level studies.”
