Phoebe

University of Plymouth

BEd (Hons) Primary (KS1/KS2 with QTS)

After finishing my A-levels at small sixth form in 2019 (and a few gap years!), I started my university journey. It took me a long time to decide what path I wanted to take, so I very much relate to the uncertainty you might be feeling at this stage! 

I am from a very rural village in Cornwall, so naturally love the outdoors. So, for someone not used to urban living, Plymouth is a great in-between! It has so much to offer, including a balance between city and coastal life.

I am now in my third (and final!) year of my BEd Primary Education degree, specialising in geography. After graduating in 2025, I hope to pursue a career in teaching and share my passion for educating for sustainability.

BSc (Hons) Environmental Management and Sustainability

I am in the final year of my degree (BSc Environmental Management and Sustainability with a placement year)! After spending four years at university, my plan for after graduation is to volunteer abroad on projects contributing towards sustainable development. During my time at the university, I have been an active member of a sports club, a course rep and a subject-specific student ambassador. 

Sharon

University of Plymouth

MEng (Hons) Robotics

I am an international student born and raised in Qatar but is inherently Indian. I love how I have been exposed to different cultures and lifestyles living in a country that is different from where I'm from. Moving to Plymouth for university has been an exciting journey so far and I hope to make the most out of the years I intend to be here. Aside from academics, I love music, dance, art, watching a bunch of TV shows, movies and reading all kinds of genres!

BSc (Hons) Navigation and Maritime Science
