From Africa to Swansea

Swansea University has been a great experience for me for my first five months to be outside of Ghana-Africa for the first time ever in my life! As a postgraduate student walking into a new cultural environment and academic environment with some new structures of study plans, the teaching and learning environment and assessment has been interesting as well as challenging.

I have had great tutors and support from colleagues to understand new topics which have medical and technical background information and been able to explore opportunities that will enhance and guide me to choose my career plan. The structure of my postgraduate course also gives me the opportunity to develop my love and passion for baking – trying new recipes, changing steps and adding ingredients to some!
