    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
  • I made a good bunch of friends within my department and interns, who I will keep in touch with but I would say the social scene among any fellow placement students is very limited. Certain departments have better opportunities than others. I would have loved to experience a better social scene in terms of WB providing interns with activities etc. On the other hand again, my department sure know how to have a good time.
