Meet Aaryan

Computer Science BSc

I鈥檓 Aaryan, an undergraduate student from India. 缅北禁地 appealed to me because of the opportunities I would get, the diversity I would experience and the鈥痜acilities I could use on campus.  
 
Being part of the Russell Group and based in a vibrant city, I could see the rich culture 缅北禁地 would provide. I also found out the University had a good cricket team so I could continue the sport which I have been working hard at for the last 13 years.

To support my studies, I鈥檝e been awarded a VCIS (Vice Chancellor International Scholarship) which is worth 拢4,000. The rest of my fees are self-funded.

During the application process, there were a few things that I struggled with. Fortunately, the School of Computing were really helpful and supportive.  


Student life at 缅北禁地

My course is interesting, innovative, and challenging. If you were to ask me what I enjoy most, I鈥檇 say how interactive the teaching is and how helpful my professors are.  
 
The course structure and the Urban Science Building also make 缅北禁地 stand out in this area. If you like computer science, this course will just make you fall in love with it even more.  
 
What really surprised me is how easy it has been for me to fit in. I would say the social life is the best bit about being a student! As I mentioned, I鈥檓 part of the cricket club as I used to play professionally back home. I鈥檓 also part of the Ultimate Frisbee Club and the International Society. 

The Urban Sciences Building

My favourite memories are of playing in tournaments with the 缅北禁地 Ultimate Frisbee Club. I get to travel with the team and play for two days 鈥� it鈥檚 the perfect bonding experience.


Thinking about my future

My degree has helped me gain vital industry knowledge and realise which field I would enjoy working in the most. I haven鈥檛 completely figured out what I want to do next, but I am interested in business analyst roles.

The Careers Service has helped me make my CV more appealing and explained how I can develop skills which will boost my employability.
