Students can get free Pot Noodles from world's first 'revision-powered vending machine' at Nottingham Trent University

The world’s first revision-powered vending machine is heading to Nottingham Trent University - with free Pot Noodles and a whole host of other surprises for students who use their noodle. 

As exam season looms, the machine tests students across a number of academic fields, from science to sociology – with general revision tips also included.

Answering questions will allow students to unlock free food to help them through revision with a quick, easy and filling meal.

As well as dispensing free snacks, the machine is set to drive students potty with the chance to win a month’s worth of tuition fees via a golden ticket found on the bottom of one pot.

The money saved on tuition will give students the cash to help them pursue their passions without fretting about fees.

The vending machine will be be at the university's Students' Union in Shakespeare Street.

The vending machine won’t be the only way students can unlock exciting opportunities. At the University of Nottingham students will be able to take part in a 'Reach for Your Dreams Run' - a bungee run down an inflatable course.

There's a chance to win some of the weirdest and wackiest internships in the world – from assisting in an extreme sports competition, delving into the world of 3D printing, picking elderflower for production of gin to making viral videos with premier league footballers.

Each activity is taking place in a bid to inspire students to unleash their potential, helping them to make it in their own way and forming part of a wider partnership with graduate recruitment site, GradBay. A total of 22 internships will be up for grabs throughout exam season, set to inspire students to try a taste of the unconventional.

Pot Noodle spokeswoman Lena Portchmouth said: "At Pot Noodle, we’re always looking for new ways to help students make it, encouraging them to reach for their dreams.

"As exam season begins, there’s no better time for us to keep bellies full and brains ticking than with the world’s first revision powered vending machine.”

Not only are we hoping to help students’ power through exam season, but we’re hoping the internships on offer will help catapult them to the job of their dreams too.”
