As an aspiring aeronautical engineer, I am driven by an insatiable passion for innovation and a relentless curiosity about the boundless possibilities of flight. My journey into the realm of aerospace engineering has been shaped by a diverse array of experiences and a steadfast commitment to excellence. From an early age, I found myself captivated by the wonder of flight, gazing in awe at the graceful arcs traced by airplanes against the sky. This fascination only deepened as I delved into the intricacies of aerodynamics, propulsion systems, and spacecraft design.
In essence, my journey as an aeronautical student is driven by a profound sense of purpose—to contribute to the advancement of aviation and space exploration, and to play a role in shaping the future of humanity's conquest of the skies and beyond.

Jasmine
University of Wales Trinity Saint David
Surface Pattern & Textiles (MDes, BA)
I came to Swansea as a born and raised Londoner with no clue what to expect out of a seaside, small Welsh city.
I have a background of fine art which led to an interest in design and pattern making, leading now to a career interest in trend and forecasting once I complete my degree this year.
Staying in Swansea has definitely opened my eyes to the balance of city life and exploring nature. One weekend could be an all day coastal walk, while the next a pub crawl around town. It really has it all.

Kirsty
University of South Wales
BSc (Hons) Psychology with Criminology and Criminal Justice
My name is Kirsty, and I'm a 23-year-old third year student pursuing a degree in Psychology with Criminology and Criminal Justice. I've previously worked as a qualified childcare practitioner.
My interests lie in understanding human behavior, and in my free time, I enjoy reading, working out, and having fun.
I'm currently learning Spanish and Welsh, and I'm also a young carer for my grandmother. If anyone else is in a similar situation, I'd be happy to share my experiences, especially if they're trying to attend university while caring for someone. As a local student, I commute to the University, and I also have dyslexia, which makes it challenging to understand coursework. However, I've developed practical techniques to overcome these hurdles and am willing to share them with anyone who might benefit.
After completing my degree, I plan to pursue a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) and eventually become a lecturer in South Wales.

Hey there!
I'm Leilani, an international student studying forensic science, and I hope to one day open up a lab back in my home country! I enjoy baking, brownies specifically, listening to music, and meeting new people! I'm half Samoan, and that automatically makes me a sucker for all sorts of sports like football, rugby, and many more! Being an international student can seem scary, but with the helpful community at USW, I have managed to make a home away from home. I understand that moving away from home and making a big change for university is a little daunting, but with a little guidance and help, it'll be a breeze. I'd be happy to help give you this guidance!
