Yesterday we welcomed Nilesh Kumar, a Film Curator from England with over a decade of experience in the arts and an MA in Korean Studies to our Preston campus.

He spoke to an audience of language undergraduates about his journey from England to South Korea, focusing on how he turned a personal decision to move abroad into a sustainable creative career. He explained the importance of networking with other people and not being limited by the first job you have.

Thank you Nilesh for sharing your life experiences with our students.

Our Story

We offer a range of single honours and flexible joint degree programmes allowing students to combine different subjects of interest. What all of our subjects have in common is an active interest in the world we live in, from writing about it creatively, understanding how our past has defined our present on our history course, to understanding social or political movements that define us today. Our students are motivated and engaged and we want to equip you with the knowledge and skills that you can use in your chosen career.
