Original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIXQFscQO8Y
Keele is a global university. With over 120 nationalities studying with us, international students are welcomed to our global community. With dedicated support, scholarships, and preparatory courses, we'll support you through your application, enrolment and beyond.
In this video, hear from Kunkuru, who studies Computer Science MSc, and his experience as an international student at Keele. This video was filmed in August 2024 – experiences and opportunities may vary for future years.
My name is Kunkuru Shadrack Meritei. I’m an international student from Kenya. I would like to encourage any international student thinking of coming to the UK that it's the best place, secure, the learning here is really, is really good, intense and the community is really welcoming, so should be ready to take that adventure.
My favourite thing about Keele University is its approach to learning. My course involves both theoretical and practical classes. In the theoretical classes I get to learn the theoretical part of the units, then in the practical classes, I get to interact with both my lecturers and demonstrators, who are always there to help to demonstrate anything that I may require.
