Hi, I'm Sid. I am a first-generation, state-educated university student at Reading. Having completed a foundation year in BSc Business & Management at Henley Business School, I am now an LLB Law with International Business student. I remember how difficult it is to pick the right university, Reading has so much support, opportunities and great teaching.
I can answer questions about life in university halls and commuting, foundation year experiences, courses and course transfers, and how university education is structured. I’m also happy to talk about the support available at Reading, including the Disability Advisory Service, as well as general university life such as clubs and societies and being a student councillor and society secretary.
As a first-generation university student from a rural background, I can share insight into the application process, transitioning to university, managing part-time work alongside study, careers, bursaries, and any other university- or Reading-related questions.
I look forward to answering your questions!

Hello there, my name is Tshering, and I am from the beautiful Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan. I am a 2nd-year International Relations student who completed the International Foundation Program at King's. In my free time, I enjoy watching movies, reading, painting, and occasionally zoning out. I'm also a big fan of K-dramas and K-pop. If you have any questions about university life or academics, or if we share any interests, feel free to reach out to me. I'm excited to connect and share my experiences with you. 🎀✨

International Relations BA Honours
I am a university student deeply engaged in political science and international relations, with a particular focus on democracy, equality, and human rights. I enjoy studying complex political theories and making them easier to understand in my own words, while maintaining strong academic integrity and referencing standards.
Living with diabetes has given me a personal insight into the importance of health and wellbeing, which motivates me to help others through my work experience in pharmacies and health-related roles. I take pride in providing practical support and advice to people managing their health.

MA International Relations
I studied BA Business Management, then realised spreadsheets were not my lifelong calling. Now I’m doing an MA in International Relations and Diplomacy, focusing on policy, migration, and the way global decisions shape real lives. I’m aiming for a career in policy or international organisations, where I can actually influence things instead of just writing reports about them.
