I 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.

Hey, I'm Angel! ✨I've been at Leeds Trinity since 2022 and study business. I have lived on campus for 3 years (including being resident mentor in All Saints Court this year) and have loved it, so can help with most things to do with uni living. I'm very friendly, love shopping and horses and I'm here to talk about all things LTU including admissions, university life or anything course related. I know what it feels like to be that mixture of nervous and excited about about starting university and moving away from home, it's a big change and so I will try my best to help you with any questions! Fire them my way!❤️

Portuguese [MA]
Hi! I'm Anna, I'm 21 years old, I'm Scottish and I study Portuguese and Spanish at the University of Glasgow! Currently I am on my Year Abroad in Sintra, Portugal, at a school participating in a traineeship, which is very exciting🤩.
In the future, I would like to learn more languages such as Russian and Arabic and work in translation and interpretation, maybe even as a news reporter! However, I also adore music and even write my own, so of course the dream has always been to tour around the world! But we'll see where life takes us🫣...
I am also gluten and dairy intolerant (possibly allergies😱!) so I have had to learn to cook and bake to satisfy my dietary requirements and under a budget! As well as find the best places to eat to suit my needs to...

Hi! I'm Arun, a 3rd Year Chemical Engineering student at University of Aberdeen. I made the exciting move to Aberdeen in 2023 to pursue my interest in chemical engineering. It really amazes me how the energy industry plays an vital role in our day-to-day life. It actually makes me to conserve the industry for the future without exploiting it to the core. I would love to make a difference in the energy industry by creating sustainable and productive solutions to the modern day problems faced by the industry. I would be happy to answer all your questions about the university, my studies, student life, city or anything else. Feel free to post your questions. Cheers:)

Pharmacology [BSc/MSci]
My long-term career plans? Well, let’s just say I’m aiming for somewhere between a lab genius discovering the next big breakthrough and a science communicator who makes pharmacology sound cooler than it is (and trust me, it’s pretty cool).
I am passionate about science and how it can change lives in such meaningful ways and my end goal is to make medicine a bit more accessible than it is today.
Outside of academics, you’ll probably find me on the basketball court or volunteering—I love working with kids and finding ways to make learning fun for them (yes, teaching can be fun!). I also juggle a few roles like being a Class Rep and basketball convener so I’m pretty familiar with what it takes to balance the chaos of uni life. Spoiler: it’s a lot of caffeine and a lot of to-do lists.
