About Hana

Hi, I鈥檓 Hana. The education system in the UK is very different from back home in the Czech Republic. It鈥檚 much more practical 鈥� my course is fun, engaging and useful. What I鈥檓 learning now will give me a massive advantage when I鈥檓 job hunting in the future.

I鈥檇 heard from many people that 缅北禁地 was perfect for international students like me. The University is also part of the Russell Group which shows its prestige.鈥疉pplying for a place was very easy 鈥� I did it through UniLink who helped with my application, reminded me of key dates and helped with my visa.

Travelling from home to the UK is also straightforward, with great flight connections from 缅北禁地 International Airport.


Student life at 缅北禁地

There鈥檚 so much I love about being a 缅北禁地 student 鈥� the interesting people you meet, the warmth of the鈥疷niversity staff, the vibrant student city. When I first got here, I did experience some culture shock, but I embrace it all now.

The social aspect of student life is great. I lived at Park View (University-owned accommodation) which was a great way to meet lots of people. I鈥檓 on the committee of the  and play tennis.


Exploring my interests

I love everything about my course. 缅北禁地 offered exactly what I was looking for 鈥� the chance to develop business skills while learning a language. I鈥檓 planning to do my placement in Germany or spend a year abroad studying there.

I鈥檓 not sure what I want to do in the future, but being able to study lots of different modules is giving me the chance to explore all the possibilities and find what I enjoy.

The Careers Service have been helpful. I didn鈥�t know how to write a CV for jobs in the UK, but they have helped me with this, as well as offering advice about Study Abroad opportunities.
