Alumni Story: Chris Glebocki
"I started studying at another university, but quickly realised it was not right for me. When I saw this course, I knew straight away it was the one because of the content, the opportunity to develop skills within the industry and of course, the location. Where else would you want to study the adventure industry than under the shadow of Ben Nevis! The qualifications and experience I gained on the course allowed me to enter into the industry, and I found my own career path whilst doing what I love.”
Chris Glebocki, Adventure Tourism Management BA (Hons) alumni
Student Story: Shaneaa Paton
“I have always been curious about hair and beauty, and I really wanted to take my skills further. My auntie used to be a hairdresser, so I had already learned a few things from her and knew it was something I wanted to pursue. I have definitely enjoyed the hairdressing side of the course the most. The lecturers are lovely. They are very understanding and stay calm, which creates a really nice environment for learning. Whenever you run into a problem or need help, they always know how to solve it.”
Shaneaa Paton, Introduction to Hair and Beauty SCQF 4/5 student
