University of Warwick

Biochemistry (MBio)

I studied Biology, chemistry, maths and french for A levels and chose to do biochemistry at Warwick because of the opportunity to complete a paid research placement and complete your masters at the same time. I also love the campus vibes and felt very at home when I first visited. 

I am passionate about research, especially in the field of antimicrobial resistance. In the summer I will be conducting a research project using AlphaFold to model the Enzymes involved in the production of a gram-negative enterobacterial cell surface protein called the O-antigen polysaccharide. The aim of the research is to build more accurate 3D models of the enzymes involved and test different ligands to see if they can act as inhibitors. These can then be tested for the ability to form novel antibiotics. 

My career ambitions are not that clear to me yet. After my Industrial Masters I would I may want to go into a research role. However, I also have a passion for finance, so I am currently gaining experience in this industry alongside my degree so to have as many options as possible for the future.

Bournemouth University

BA (Hons) Media Production

I am a (by definition only) mature student studying Media Production. I spent my career in retail and hospitality. I lived in New Zealand for three years running a hotel/hot pool resort in a remote part of the South Island. I returned to England just before the pandemic took hold, reflecting on what direction I wanted my life to go in, I made the decision to follow my passions and applied to University. 
Bournemouth University is amazing! I have already been granted so many opportunites, and it is one of the most inclusive environments I have evert been a part of.

University of Lincoln

Media (including by practice) - MPhil/PhD

Over the past 9 years, I've been deeply involved in performing arts, where I've explored theatre, dance, and singing. These experiences have taught me a lot about expressing myself and have built my confidence a lot.

Now, I'm excited to explore the world of media and acting in the future. I'm drawn to the idea of bringing characters to life on screen and telling stories in new ways. Combining my background in performing arts with this new adventure feels like the perfect next step. Whilst studying I have also gained an extra passion for radio which has broadened my skillset, and my course has really allowed me to hone my skills and a whole bunch of new ones. Along with all this I have met a lot of amazing people and been very comfortable studying.

I'm from India and currently in my second year of university. I've been involved in various societies and clubs, and through these experiences, I've gained a lot of knowledge about campus activities and resources.
