Alice
University of EssexMarine BiologyHello! 👋 I'm Alice, a student at the University of Essex currently pursuing an integrated masters in Tropical Marine Biology. I'm thrilled to be a part of the Unibuddy community as a Student Ambassador, where I can share my unique journey and experiences with you. Beyond the academic realm, I have a deep passion for invertebrates in the sea, including jellyfish and other odd looking creatures! Extra-curricular activities are where I find balance between academia and fun. Squash, running and scuba diving are sports that I truly enjoy. The thrill of a competitive squash match or the serenity of a long run along the coastline are experiences I cherish. Future Career Plan: As I progress through my academic journey, my ultimate goal is to contribute significantly to the field of marine biology. I aspire to earn a Ph.D., conducting ground-breaking research that sheds light on the complexities of gelatinous animals and their role in marine ecosystems. My vision extends beyond the laboratory; I aim to bridge the gap between scientific knowledge and public understanding, advocating for the conservation of our oceans. Join me on this exciting adventure through academia and exploration of the deep sea on Unibuddy! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about marine biology, integrated masters programs, or if you just want to chat about our shared interests. Let's make the most of our academic journey together! 🌊🔬🏃♂️ Amaia
University of EssexPhysiotherapyHeyy👋🏻, I am Amaia from the UK. I am studying MSc Physiotherapy at University of Essex (Year 1). I enjoy learning about anatomy, biomechanics, nutrition and rehabilitation. I am passionate about Sport and Exercise Science, Nutrition, Physiotherapy, and Rehabilitation. Feel free to ask me questions about uni, my course, or any other queries you may have. Looking forward to chatting with you :)) Anastasiia
University of EssexArt HistoryI am a 28 y.o. PhD student with a background in Museum Studies (St Petersburg State University of Culture) and Curatorial Research (St Petersburg State University). My PhD is sponsored by Essex's Human Rights Centre. I'm here to help you start your academic journey with the UoE. Ask me anything about PGR studies at Essex (especially PHAIS), financial support for international students, accommodation, life on and off campus (especially cultural events, e.g. museums, theatres, etc.) and what it's like to live in the UK/Colchester (e.g. what's there for people from my (and probably yours!) part of the globe, such as where we celebrate Orthodox Easter!). Fun facts about me: travelled to 30+ countries; have a cute little chinchilla named Pyshka 🍩; learnt that all stereotypes about British weather are true yet still enjoy it here. Ann
University of EssexBiomedical ScienceHi, I’m Ann, a second-year biomedical student with a keen interest in pathology. I’m currently looking for a placement in the field and plan to continue my studies in the future. I’m happy to share my experiences and help fellow students navigate university life, from academics to placements and beyond! Asiya
University of EssexChildhood StudiesGrowing up, I was privileged enough to only be surrounded by a lot of children within my family but also witness what children go through in the society, the mischief that they can get into and the social rejection that they might face. This made me develop an interest in children’s rights and their welfare. I have learnt more about social justice and child protection while studying at the university of Essex. My career goal is to work in the field of community development especially for the protection of children and creating safe environments for them as well as addressing the causes of criminal activities from a young age. I love reading and this has always been a way of keeping me informed as well as how I can be motivated to find new ways to solve different issues. I am interesting, I promise 😁. Claire
University of EssexLinguisticsHello! I'm Claire and I am originally from the frozen state of Alaska. I am a lover of all things languages, and I am specifically interested in Korean and Yup'ik. I am currently a 2nd year student with plans to take a placement year. In the future, I hope to work in the justice system as a data analyst or translator. If you have any questions or want to get to know me more, send me a message! Craig
University of EssexSports TherapyI enjoy stepping out of my comfort zone with adrenaline-inducing activities and going with the flow. I aim to work as a physiotherapist/sports therapist for a professional sports team and travel the world. ELEESYA SOFEA
University of EssexActuarial ScienceHi! I'm Eleesya Sofea I'm a 2nd year Actuarial Science student at the University of Essex and an international student from Malaysia. I have a strong passion for mathematics, statistics, and problem-solving, and I aspire to become an actuary in the future, using my analytical skills to assess risks and make informed financial decisions. Beyond academics, I'm actively involved in social events and love connecting with new people. I also sometimes volunteer with the university’s V-Team, which allows me to give back to the community and develop new skills. Being a Student Ambassador gives me the opportunity to share my university experience, support prospective students, and help them navigate student life. If you have any questions about studying at Essex, career aspirations, or university life in general, feel free to reach out—I’d love to help! Fleur
University of EssexEuropean StudiesHello there, nice to meet you! My name is Fleur and I am studying European Studies at Essex. I love my course because it allows me to study a lot of different topics, such as history, politics, sustainability, philosophy, and even recently a bit of economics! While I'm not completely certain what I would like to do after leaving University, I know that I would like to contribute to making the world a better place, whether that be through working in social policy, a non-profit organisation, or an area contributing to reducing the climate crisis. Outside of university I am very interested in arts and crafts, and I love to curl up on a rainy day and crochet while listening to music, which is another hobby of mine. I love all things to do with music, playing musical instruments and listening to all different genres! I'm not incredibly sporty but I do enjoy going on walks in my beautiful hometown, along with swimming in pools and rivers (although the fish do scare me a bit). Archery is another interest of mine, and I've really enjoyed getting involved at the University Club! Gary Dii
University of EssexLawGrowing up in the Solomon Islands, I've always felt a deep connection to the ocean. This passion led me to pursue an LLM in International Trade and Maritime Law here at the University of Essex. My goal is to ensure sustainable maritime practices and address legal challenges like cybersecurity threats and autonomous vessels. I aim to start as a regulatory compliance specialist and eventually become a policy advisor, shaping trade policies that protect our marine environment. The University of Essex's supportive environment and expert faculty make it the perfect place to achieve these goals and make a meaningful impact on our oceans. Grace
University of EssexCriminologyHi hi!!, I am a first-year student currently studying Criminology and American studies with hopes of working either as a criminology teacher or working with juveniles to prevent reoffending. I did Re, History, Psychology and an EPQ at alvls and went through clearing because I thought Essex would be a better school for me. I'm happy to answer any questions!!! Hannah
University of EssexEngineeringHi! I’m Hannah, a first-year student studying Neural Engineering with Psychology. My degree isn’t one that’s very well known but I love it. It combines Psychology, Engineering and Computer Science. In my next couple of years, I will cover areas like working with prosthetics, AI and brain computer-interfaces. If that sounds like your sort of thing, then definitely go check it out and feel free to ask me any questions about my experience so far. I mostly work in the CSEE department so I can answer questions about other courses as well. As this is my first year, I remember very well how stressful looking for the right university and course can be. I’d like to make your experience easier in anyway I can. Remember, university might seem a bit scary but its also such a great opportunity to be independent and there will always be people happy to support you. Outside of university I like to play video games and I’m trying to get back into the gym. Ask me any questions you have, big or small, and I will try my best to answer them.
