0:00.0	Want it all? You'll find it here. Because at UE Bristol, we empower students to make a choice,
0:06.1	to choose a community of bright minds and courageous thinkers, to choose to stand out,
0:11.0	with courses designed to equip you with the most in-demand skills, to choose a mindset,
0:16.0	the kind that employers want and need. Don't just choose a city, don't just choose a course,
0:20.8	choose to do university right, choose UE Bristol, not just another university. But don't just
0:26.6	take our word for it, such UWE Bristol today.
0:57.0	Welcome to Fearless. Welcome to Fearless with Jason Whitlock. I am Jason Whitlock,
