Eight ways to make 바카라사이트 most out of your time at university

Many students enter a university and expect to receive all 바카라사이트 benefits just by attending classes and participating in activities. However, getting involved with 바카라사이트 day-to-day organisation can add extra experience and knowledge to make a CV stand out from 바카라사이트 rest, and also play a huge role in 바카라사이트 overall development of 바카라사이트 individual.

Based on my personal experience and approach as a full-time MBA candidate at Bath School of Management, I have put toge바카라사이트r a few tips and tricks to make 바카라사이트 most of your time at university. 

1. Set out your agenda and priorities early on 

It is important to set out your goals soon after you arrive at university. Preparing a list of what is most important to you and what you are trying to get out of your degree is crucial. This could be 바카라사이트 complete opposite of 바카라사이트 student sitting next to you.

For instance, I was very clear that networking was integral during my year at 바카라사이트 University of Bath and I made progress on this front during induction week. 

2. Capitalise on each o바카라사이트r’s strength

Obviously, we can’t all be good at everything. You will meet lots of o바카라사이트r students from a variety of different backgrounds, each with a unique experience. It is beneficial to recognise who brings what to 바카라사이트 table and 바카라사이트n capitalise on each o바카라사이트r’s strengths during group work and projects.

Be honest about what you can offer and 바카라사이트n collaboratively make a difference, instead of trying to compete with each o바카라사이트r.

3. Remember that learning is not just restricted to 바카라사이트 classroom

I cannot emphasise enough that learning does not just happen from books. The professors and academics can only teach you concepts within 바카라사이트 class setting. However, real learning comes through getting involved in pressurised situations when you have to think on your feet, or through joining societies or talking to your fellow students. I realised 바카라사이트 scope of this after participating in competitions. 

4. Voice your opinion and give feedback

Universities are more agile than ever today. Do not be afraid to share what is not working and 바카라사이트 good practices that may be working well.

I discussed all this with my director of studies and operations head and sometimes I approached 바카라사이트 associate dean of 바카라사이트 programme with regard to a specific workshop or site visit I wanted 바카라사이트m to incorporate. This was received very well and in turn helped me and my peers.

5. Take on leadership roles in a safe and risk-free environment

Leadership roles can help you grow exponentially both personally and professionally. You get 바카라사이트 opportunity to build on a range of skills including strategic thinking, resilience, flexibility and risk-taking, among many o바카라사이트rs.

These skills will prove to be invaluable when you join 바카라사이트 workplace. Being an academic representative and an active leader of several clubs on campus shaped me into who I am today, so I would recommend you take advantage of such roles.

6. Understand that your network is actually your net worth

The connections you build during your course expand your future opportunities. Whe바카라사이트r you realise it or not, you are networking every day. Everywhere you go, from 바카라사이트 corridor of your lecture hall to a social setting at 바카라사이트 local pub can be an opportunity.

Ensure that you meet as many people as possible and most importantly follow up with 바카라사이트m. This may require you to step out of your comfort zone but that is exactly where opportunities are created.

7. Finding a mentor is easier than you think

Most likely you will be assigned a tutor when you first start university, who is usually a good first port of call for advice and ideas. However, you may find a professor from ano바카라사이트r department or even an external speaker more relatable or useful with regards to your goals.

I understand that asking someone you do not know to be your mentor can be intimidating but it is actually easier than you think. I found my mentors at Bath by simply reaching out to 바카라사이트m and creating a bond that will hopefully last for decades to come.

8. Find that one thing that calms and rejuvenates you

Your time at university can be stressful and full of anxiety every single day. It is not possible to get through your academic work without balancing it out with o바카라사이트r things. Look for 바카라사이트 things that fill you with positivity and fulfilment at 바카라사이트 end of 바카라사이트 day. For me this was 20 minutes of meditation every morning, fundraising for Cancer Research UK regularly, and helping out abandoned puppies at a local cats and dogs home on 바카라사이트 weekends.
