MSc Economics
Where are you from, and what are you studying?
I am studying in the MSc Economics program. I am also interested in Competition Policy, so I attend lectures and I’m taking classes through the PGCert in Competition Policy program run by the Centre for Competition Policy.
Could you tell us about the scholarship you hold.
I hold a Fulbright Scholarship, awarded through the US-UK Fulbright Commission.
Do you have a favourite module, and can you tell us why?
My favourite module is Finance. Given my interest in regulation, it is fascinating to see economic theory applied in real-world business decisions.
In your opinion, what has been the best or the most unexpected so far at UEA?
The people! I love the collaborative atmosphere among my classmates. I have made some great friends through my program, who I study with (and also hang out with). The professors are also incredibly accessible and approachable.
What do you do for socialising, or any other extra-curricular activities?
I am involved in the Mountaineering club! I have been on three weekend trips so far, have made some great friends, and go to a pub quiz with them every week!
What message do you have for those who are thinking of applying to UEA?
Apply! UEA has incredible academics, a supportive atmosphere, and great opportunities to allow you to get involved in your academic interests outside of the classroom.
