"Moray College UHI is a comfortable place to study with great facilities and supportive staff. If you like a quiet classroom then it’s an ideal choice as it’s not crowded like other universities.”
Joe, BSc (Hons) Sport and Fitness
“As part of this course we are given the opportunity to coach primary school pupils, I have really benefited from this experience as I am able to put theory in to practice. I also find it rewarding being able to motivate and engage children in having fun while being active.”
