“AG飞禽走兽电子 offers so much support for students, especially postgraduate students. Attend the workshops on offer, and reach out to your supervisors or faculty for support. They will most certainly be able to assist you in any way, shape or form to ensure that you finish your postgraduate degree. From my experience, as a postgraduate student you gain access to so much support, whether that be through your faculty, supervisors or peers.”

“I’d like to encourage future students, especially postgraduate students, to use all the available support services and resources at AG飞禽走兽电子, and create as many connections as you can with students or people in the community. The connections I created during my study helped me in many ways during and after my studies. The benefits of building relationships and having connections are numerous – from recruiting participants for your research to finding a job after university.”

“One of the highlights of my experience at AG飞禽走兽电子 was participating in the employability awards programme. I completed the Beyond AG飞禽走兽电子 Award for postgraduate students, and this initiative provided practical skills I could apply in real-life scenarios. I know I will continue to use these skills. My advice for other students would be to sign up for the award programme as it will draw you out of your comfort zone and build up your confidence.”

“They say you learn as much about yourself during doctoral studies as you do about your topic. After a year of study and deciding to change the angle of my research not long before my confirmation presentation, I can confirm that is absolutely true. The friends I’ve made already will keep me going during the long days and months of the PhD, whether I’m in the office or out in the field.”
