RAWAN TAHA, MSc Public Health and Health Promotion. Class of 2018. EIRA FRANCIS DAVIES SCHOLAR. HUMANITARIAN AFFAIRS FELLOW. CLIMATE CHANGE COMBATANT. “As a young scholarly African woman, I was looking for a university that provided opportunities for young leaders like myself. My advice to current students is to use university time to go beyond your degree, beyond your thesis and beyond your transcripts. Only then will you be able to get a job and live a life that is beyond your expectations.” swansea.ac.uk/alumni/ alumni-profiles/rawan-taha
“I knew that Swansea University had brilliant Welsh and Politics departments, so I wanted to study there to be taught by the best. Also, the appeal of the nearby Gower and beaches was a massive draw. Being taught by absolutely outstanding lecturers, the friends that I made at university and the many sporting activities that I took part in were defining memories of being a student at Swansea. Had it not been for Swansea University I wouldn’t be where I am today.”
JASON MOHAMMAD, BA Welsh and Politics. Class of 1996. RADIO AND TELEVISION PRESENTER.

ALEX RUDDY, MBBCh Medicine (Graduate Entry). Class of 2019. STEPPED UP TO WORK AS A FRONTLINE MEDIC DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC.
“The prospect of beginning my career as a doctor a few months early filled me with a sense of nervous duty. We trained for this moment for four years – and working towards it for much longer – above the sense of personal fear or anxiety, I think we were all eager to apply ourselves to the crisis and help our NHS during a time of immense need.” swansea.ac.uk/centenary2020/century-of-inspiring-people/alex-ruddy
