Welcome to our
Anglia Ruskin
University
Open Day
I am delighted to welcome you to Anglia Ruskin
University and to our Open Day.
This is our chance to show you what life is really like here
at Anglia Ruskin. Make the most of it. Talk to our staff and
students and see the facilities for yourself.
A university education is an investment, not just in the next few
years but in your future. Our aim is to help you get the most out
of that investment by giving you the opportunity to achieve your
full potential.
The starting point is choosing a university that is right for you.
I hope that the courses and environment we can offer you at
Anglia Ruskin provide that exact match.
