Ben

University of Lincoln

Accountancy and Finance - BA (Hons)

Hi, I’m Ben!

I’m currently studying Accountancy at Lincoln University, and I’m in my second year, working towards a predicted 2:1. I’m passionate about finance, accounting, and business, and I’m keen to apply my knowledge in real-world scenarios.

Beyond my studies, I’ve taken part in various industry-focused opportunities, including:

Completing the Bloomberg Market Concepts course to develop financial markets knowledge.

Achieving Microsoft Office Specialist certification in Excel, enhancing my data analysis skills.

Winning 1st place in the CIMA Business Game Award, showcasing my problem-solving and strategic thinking.

Acting as a Student Ambassador and Course Representative, helping students navigate university life and academic challenges.

I also have work experience across multiple industries, from customer service and operations to handling emergency calls for the NHS. These roles have strengthened my communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills.

In my first and second year, I lived in Lincoln, which gave me a great experience of student life, but this year I’m commuting. So, whether you’re moving away for uni or thinking about commuting, I’m happy to share advice on both!

Outside of academics, I’m a huge football fan and love both playing and watching the game. I also enjoy gaming in my free time, whether it's competitive online matches or just relaxing with friends.

I’m always happy to chat about university life, balancing studies with work, career opportunities, or even football and gaming! Feel free to ask me anything.

Ben

University of East Anglia UEA

Literature and Creative Writing

3rd year English Literature student currently finishing my studies at UEA and set to begin  my MA in Archiving at UCL next year. Working towards a career in Archiving and Record Preservation. 
Particularly interests in Critical Theory and philosophy. Passionate about exploring the intersections between literature, politics, music, visual art and our collective histories. The written word is not dead or static but full of life which it gives to us, which is why I feel the study of Literature is so significant.
I also enjoy creative writing as a way of developing my passion for reading, and enjoying an appreciation for my favourite books which is interactive and participatory.
In my spare time I boulder at Rock Punk Climbing Cafe, located on Magdalen Street in Norwich, and Highball Climbing Centre, just a bus ride away from the City Centre. I love the element of problem solving involved in completing difficult routes and  advancing towards harder challenges with a renewed set of physical and mental skills.
I also find that Climbing is a sport that has helped me immensely around difficulties stemming from complete blindness in my left eye, such as strengthening depth perception and hand eye coordination. It is something I'd recommend very highly to anyone with impaired eye-sight (and everyone else too!)
I am also well acquainted with the DSA process by virtue of my blindness so please do message me if you're curious or facing any troubles with regard to disability allowance and support!
I have also skateboarded for a number of years and enjoy a street skate sesh or a trip to Eaton Park whenever I can :)

Ben

Durham University

MChem Chemistry (Industrial Project) (F111)

Hey, I'm Ben and I've been studying Chemistry at Durham Uni for the past 3 years. After doing all three sciences up to A-Level I found Chemistry to be my favourite, and Durham University has been fantastic for allowing me to explore it in depth whilst still contextualising it in terms of its wider impact. As a result, I've got an industrial placement lined up next year working for Johnson Matthey, where I'll be part of a research team focused around catalysis. Feel free to drop me a message with any questions about Durham's Chemistry course or about anything in general in terms of studying and living in Durham, and I'll try my best to answer them!

Benjamin

Southampton Solent University

BA (Hons) Architectural Design and Technology

Hi! I’m Benjamin, and I’m currently studying BA (Hons) Architectural Design and Technology at Southampton Solent University.
I’m passionate about design, urban planning, and how architecture shapes our daily lives. I decided to study architecture because I’ve always been fascinated by buildings, spaces, and the way environments can influence people’s experiences. The creative and technical aspects of the field draw me in, and I love the challenge of merging functionality with aesthetics. At Solent, I’m exploring everything from architectural theory to hands-on design projects. We get to work with both traditional and digital tools, and the program offers a great balance of studio work and technical learning. So far, I’ve worked on some exciting projects. I'd be more than happy to answer any questions you may have about my course area or Solent generally.
