  • So far, all I can say is excellent and I am glad I selected Coventry university. Coventry university is a great plane of learning and I am glad to be part of this great institution. Just a few days ago, we had a career day where top companies came to interact with the students. This is a plus for the careers and development department of Coventry university. More so, I have had the opportunity to get placements with the university's Center for Global Engagement which will help with promoting my career prospects as well as gaining the required international experience. Also, the. University runs a Global Leaders Program, which I am gladly a part of as I have learnt a lot and secured future contacts with top notch executives from global companies. Finally, my course runs a compulsory CMI program, which will push me forward towards my future goals as well as set me up a consultant. Tops to Coventry university. Coventry university is constantly upgrading as we have a well developed engineering building with state of the art equipment and tools which constantly makes life easy for the students.The Frederick Lancaster library, not within and online is always updated with constant materials so that students don't have to go through the stress of surfing the web for materials as we have access to journal sites.
