Journalism graduate Laura Preece feels at home in her first job - she went straight from her degree course at the University of Lincoln to a job as a university press officer in London.

Laura, (21), gained some valuable work experience in the University of Lincoln's press office while studying for her degree in Journalism and Media Communications.

And just weeks after completing her course, she landed her job as a press and PR assistant at Goldsmiths College, University of London.

She said: "I really enjoyed my time at Lincoln - the city is beautiful and the university is so friendly and welcoming.

"I would recommend my course to anyone. The practical opportunities are amazing while the theory aspect is extremely rewarding and interesting."

Laura returned to the cathedral city to graduate with an upper second-class honours degree.
