I was attracted to come to Swansea University because of my supervisor, whose research interests (in science fiction and digital humanities) easily coincided with mine. He has been extremely supportive and patient in our meetings, whether they’re in person or over Zoom. I’m a person of mixed tastes, so Swansea, as a location, is paradise for me. It’s neither too urban nor too rural – it gives me exactly the sense of peace and fun that I want. I fell in love with the city at once. It has a cultural flavour to it, you have Mumbles and the Gower, the story of Swansea Jack… and I didn’t know the University was that close to the beach! The international community here at Swansea University is massive, and the University leaves no stone unturned in making sure that international students here are having the best time possible. It makes a huge effort to celebrate its multicultural community. ASHISH DWIVEDI

There is a difference in being taught by lecturers and being taught by world-renowned academics. At Swansea University, I experienced the latter. The faculty is well-known for their expertise in the industry, which I experienced first-hand when discussing my job interviews in premium organisations in this field. Combined with a versatile and diverse cohort, I was provided with a platform where I was able to learn, enjoy, thrive, and succeed in my future endeavors. Needless to say, the knowledge which I acquired at Swansea has helped me deal with varied complex scenarios in my career with relative ease PUNEET SAREEN
