Michael Cutts, BA (Hons) History

“I really like the excellent facilities at UHI Inverness, and the whole experience was one of the best things I have ever done.

“I considered the Open University but was attracted to UHI Inverness as ‘my local university’, and I liked the mix of self-study and classes, and the specific course on offer.

“I specifically wanted to study history at a higher level, and the location and method of teaching were particularly attractive to me. I liked the variety of modules on offer, including the opportunity to study other humanity modules, as well as the friendliness and accessibility of the teaching staff.”

Michael (57) from Aviemore graduated in September 2022.

He has wise advice for future history degree students:

“Once enrolled, plan your time each week, and attend classes, even if you haven’t managed to do all the required reading. Don’t be afraid to speak in class, the more you engage the more you benefit.”
