Hi ! I’m a 3rd-year undergraduate student studying Sports Therapy at the University of Essex. I started my journey here at just 17 years old, moving not only to an entirely new country but adjusting to living alone was a challenge, but along the way, I’ve picked up some tips and tricks that I’d love to share with you because I know how hard it can be.
For the past two years, I’ve been part of the V Team, and this year, I’m the Session Leader for the Refugee Teaching Program. I’ve also lived on campus all three years, so I’ve had plenty of experience with campus life, accommodations, and all things Essex.
If you have any questions about being an international student, life on campus, accommodation, or volunteering opportunities, feel free to reach out!
Robert
Lancaster University
Mathematics and Statistics
Hello! I'm Robert, a 4th-year Mathematics student at Lancaster University. I originally started in Accounting and Finance, but quickly realised my passion lay in maths, leading me to switch courses and dive deep into the subject I love. Studying at Lancaster has been a rewarding journey, where I’ve not only tackled abstract concepts but also gained the foundation to pursue diverse career paths, including my goal of a PhD in Artificial Intelligence.
As the Events and Safety Officer for the Math Society, I've organised both academic and social events, helping create a strong, supportive community. When I'm not immersed in equations, I enjoy cooking, travelling during breaks, and exploring Lancaster's beautiful canal walks and rural scenery. Whether you’ve got questions about life as a student, transitioning courses, or anything related to Lancaster, I’m here to help! Feel free to reach out—I'm looking forward to connecting!
