Hear from our students

Check out our student interview with William Wong from Malaysia who is studying MArch Architecture at Oxford Brookes University.

I really like the city, and its strategic convenience and location to London. And, Oxford Brookes for this course, specifically, it was recognised by my country's board of architects as well as The Royal British Institute of Architects in the UK (RIBA)...I really like the facilities and the opportunity to drive your own architectural career and specialisation through the studios and specialisations provided in the university.
William Wong - Malaysia, MArch Architecture
