UWE Bristol
Software Engineering for Business
I was born and raised in Nigeria and joined UWE early 2023. I will admit I waited till the last minute to decide to pursue software engineering as a degree, but I do believe I made the right decision. My passion for coding and software development is growing by the day and I cannot wait to apply my abilities in the real world. That’s not to say I don’t suffer from imposter syndrome occasionally, but I do think being in the right environment has really helped change my mindset and attitude.

Business Management BA Honours
One of my biggest goals is to study abroad in Japan for a year. I’ve always been passionate about experiencing different cultures, and I believe immersing myself in a new environment will be an incredible learning experience. Not only will it give me a fresh perspective on the world, but it’s also a great way to grow personally and professionally. Employers value people who are ambitious, independent, and open to new experiences, and I see this opportunity as a way to develop those qualities even further. Plus, let’s be honest—exploring Japan, learning the language, and diving into the culture sounds like an amazing adventure! I’m excited for the challenges and growth that come with it, and I know it’ll be a life-changing experience that shapes my future in the best way possible.

Belén
University of the Arts London
BA (Hons) Textile Design
Hey, I’m Belén!
I’m originally from Spain and completed my Foundation Diploma in Paris in 2022. Currently, I’m a Textile Design student at Chelsea College of Arts, taking a sandwich year to complete a Diploma in Creative Computing at the UAL Creative Computing Institute before starting my third year. During my second year, I had the opportunity to go on exchange (back to Paris! 😊) and have also taken part in other exciting international opportunities through UAL.
As an international student, I understand both the excitement and challenges of moving to a new country for university. From adapting to a new culture to navigating student life in London, I’ve learned a lot along the way. UAL has a welcoming and diverse community, and there are so many opportunities to connect with people from all over the world. If you’re feeling unsure about studying abroad or settling into London, I’d be happy to share my experiences and tips!
I have a strong interest in the intersection of textiles, technology, and human behavior. My work explores how computational design, weave, and interactive systems can shape our perception of materials and environments. I’m also passionate about sustainability, design innovation, and the role of craft in a digital world.
If you have any questions about studying at UAL, navigating a diploma year, being an international student at UAL or combining creative disciplines, feel free to reach out—I’d love to help! Any question is a good question!
