Yi-Ting, Taiwanese student

HI! I'm Yiting from Taiwan, you can call me Elaine as well. I’m now a postgraduate student majoring in Brand Leadership. 

Here are some keywords about me: 

#Sporty: As a member of Sportspark, I go to the fitness three days a week. The facilities provided by this place are professional and satisfactory for all what I need. Sometimes, I sign up for courses like yoga and Zumba. There are way more types of courses and some of them sounds really attracting, and I’m going to experience all of them (that’s my goal haha). These courses are available for all-level people, which is good for starters to get into healthy life. 

#Traveler: So far, I have been to around 20 different countries. I’d like to know the people from different background and culture, for me, these stories behind individuals are fascinating. And this is also a trait that I found here in UEA, diversity, is one of its advantages. 

#Explorer: Though I didn't join any clubs, I like to explore a lot of new events on campus. For example, I went to the movie night hold by history society or attended the Tylor swift’ songs party hold by the Tyler Swift club. Basically, there are lots of events going on every day and that makes my campus life more interesting and socializing. 

Before coming here, I had 3-year working experience in a brand agency based in Shenzhen, China. I know sometimes it’s hard for people who has working experience and going back to study, but I think it’s a good opportunity to reflect ourselves in this gap year. The reason why I choose this university is because the reputation of brand leadership program, which has strict interviewed process to make sure the student ‘s quality. Every year the class is limited within 15 students from all over the world, we call it Brand Family. It is not common that a university has this kind of specific program, and this program truly provide what I need- depth and practical knowledge about branding. In UEA, you will find a lot of specific programs, which fit in the people who knows what they want and make UEA differentiate from other universities. 

The best thing about Norwich, I would say the vibe here. It has very slow pace and you can immerse yourself in historical stories. Also, you’ll be wowed when you realize how many independent stores you can be explored here! The transportation from Norwich to London is convenient, with a 2-hour-direct train. Sometimes I’ll travel to London for a weekend, and I think it’s really a cost-efficient way for international students.
