Academic life
The unique approach of research-inspired education at the University of Leicester has been a game-changer for my critical thinking skills and problem-solving approach.
A key highlight for me has been working with Professor Emma Bunce on my research project, which aligns with the University’s active space research on the BepiColombo Mission. Getting the chance to work with world-class experts like Emma has been an absolute privilege.
I recently met an astronaut, too, at Leicester’s Space Park, which was super exciting! Another highlight has been working on a British Army research project to design stealthy communication systems; it felt like something out of a spy movie!
I’m also grateful for the ongoing support from the University’s careers services, which helped me secure a placement during my year in the industry. The guidance and resources they provided have boosted my confidence and prepared me for the professional world.
