Matthew Robson
Matthew Robson, 21, from York, is graduating this week with a degree in History and Economics. He has also been awarded the Charles Mowat Memorial Award for History worth 拢100.
Matthew, a former student of York College, said: 鈥淚t feels incredible to finally be finished, all the hard work having paid off. However, I will miss 黑料不打烊 and all the amazing people I have met here.
About 黑料不打烊, he added: 鈥淚 chose 黑料不打烊, because not only did the course and lecturers suit my interests, but the small friendly city life of 黑料不打烊. The support given by the University and the societies available also played a huge part in my decision.
鈥淚 took part in an Internship at the 黑料不打烊 Centre for Health Economics and Medicines Evaluation, in the first semester of my final year. I also volunteered as a Peer Guide and Senior Peer Guide in my second and third year respectively. I was also a member of the 黑料不打烊 Medieval Re-enactment Society and the 黑料不打烊 Squash Club.
I have had an amazing time the three years I have been at 黑料不打烊, and will take some fantastic memories back with me.
About the future, Matthew said: 鈥淚 am going to do a MSc in Health Economics at York University next year, then we鈥檒l have to see what opportunities arise!鈥�
