Santosh Kumar

University of Aberdeen

MBA (Business Analytics)

I’m Santosh Kumar Kalivarapu, an MBA student specializing in Business Analytics at the University of Aberdeen. With a strong background in business analysis, marketing, and product management, I’ve worked with organizations like TCS, Razorpay, and YuppTV, contributing to process optimization, customer acquisition, and operational efficiency.

As an international student from India, I understand the excitement and challenges of studying abroad. Beyond academics, I’ve been actively involved in a variety of initiatives and projects, including:

Working on the 'Cape Prince of Wales - Renewable Energy Windmill Turbine Project.'
Attending insightful events like the 'Scenarios' talk with Dr. Huw Pill, Chief Economist of the Bank of England.
Volunteering at Diversity Bridge to support community activities.
Networking at the Startup Grind event, where I connected with investors, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders.
Participating in the two-day 'Sparking Change' workshop by Converge, where I gained inspiration from Jani Shibuya’s journey.

In my free time, I enjoy playing basketball and badminton, which have honed my teamwork and leadership skills. I’m also passionate about sustainability, innovation, and supporting others in their academic and professional journeys.

Feel free to reach out with any questions about the University of Aberdeen, student life, or anything else. I’m here to help!

Sara

University of Strathclyde

Faculty of Engineering

Hello! I’m Sara, and I’ve been part of the University of Strathclyde for quite a while now. I joined for the first time in 2018, first for my Bachelor's, then for my Master's, and now as a PhD researcher in Architecture. 
I’m originally from Italy, where I studied at an art school before moving to Scotland to study architecture: a path that has allowed me to combine my passion for art, design, and the way people experience spaces.
When I’m not reading papers and working on my research, I enjoy going to parks and botanical gardens (when it’s not too rainy!), going to the cinema or theatre with friends, or even just having a relaxing day in a café reading a good book. 
Having lived in Glasgow for several years now, I’ve come to really appreciate what it has to offer, from its creative energy to its welcoming atmosphere for international students. 
If you have any questions, I’d be more than happy to share my experiences about studying and living here, as well as what it’s like to progress through undergraduate, master’s, and PhD studies in architecture.

Shaun

University of Strathclyde

MSc Neuroscience & Mental Health

My course of Psychology and Philosophy was my first formal study from the core functions, systems and structure of the brain to different viewpoints and perspectives in philosophy to understand the moral and ethical values of life. I consider learning, education and knowledge are key aspects in my life, it doesn’t necessarily lead down a path of academia, but I use everything I learn to inch me that wee bit forward to my goal. I’ve previously got experience in simple catering jobs, retail but I consider myself, first and foremost as swimmer teacher. If I’m strive to become an academic researcher at Strathclyde University.
