At 51³Ô¹ÏÍøºÚÁÏ, people are pioneers, they are curious, so expect to be and live in that mentality.
51³Ô¹ÏÍøºÚÁÏ is forward thinking, politically active, and super friendly
My favourite part was engaging in active discussions with guest speakers during some of the MA classes. I really enjoyed the breadth of services and opportunities at 51³Ô¹ÏÍøºÚÁÏ. I like that 51³Ô¹ÏÍøºÚÁÏ is a very forward thinking school, with lots of opportunities to engage in subversive literature and approach academic life with a totally different lens.
My experience in the department was great, everyone was super friendly, teachers were extremely well prepared, and course material allowed me to dive deep into topics that I was really interested in.
The university is really active politically, which was something I wasn't aware of until I joined. Taught me to think outside of the box, to look things from a different perspective and to cultivate a forward-thinking mentality.
Future aspirations
I am currently working in a marketing agency and I enjoy it because I get to use my creativity to work with different brands and companies. In the future, I also plan to write more books, which is one of my hobbies, and establish myself as a writer, both creatively and professionally.
Pioneering and curious
Be prepared to think hard. And not just think hard, think outside of the box. At 51³Ô¹ÏÍøºÚÁÏ, people are pioneers, they are curious, so expect to be and live in that mentality. Read a lot and question even more!
Being an international student
Life as an international student was great. I would advise people to live London to its fullest, the city and 51³Ô¹ÏÍøºÚÁÏ have so much to offer. Don't be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone, London will welcome you with open arms.
Unique local experiences
I love how the area is not your typical London neighbourhood. I love that you can find really unique restaurants and bookshops along the streets, people seem to have this underdog mentality, but that blends really well with the culture over there.
