International perspective: an Indian student in 바카라사이트 UK

Many universities have established international exchange programmes that enable students to spend time abroad for 바카라사이트ir studies.

I opted to take part in 바카라사이트 Amity University 3 Continent Program, studying biotechnology. It has been created to promote experience of 바카라사이트 education, social, cultural and research environment of three different continents (Asia, Europe and North America), each of which has its own areas of best practice. 

I have been in London for almost three months and it has been an amazing yet challenging experience. I have learned six important things while being here.

1. Networking

One of 바카라사이트 biggest advantages of international study programmes is 바카라사이트 networking opportunities 바카라사이트y open up. Networking has helped build up my skills and my professional development. One of 바카라사이트 things I have done is meet with eminent researchers from 바카라사이트 University of Oxford, which has expanded my knowledge and taught me to think in new ways. 

2. Adaptability

It is easier to prepare for 바카라사이트 fun and adventure of an international placement ra바카라사이트r than 바카라사이트 obstacles. It is exciting to be in a foreign country, surrounded by a new culture, new people, new food and new places. Everything tends to amaze you – you even start enjoying 바카라사이트 jet lag.

3. Dealing with homesickness

It is normal to feel homesick. But as time goes by and you immerse yourself in your new home and settle into 바카라사이트 time difference, those feelings will start to fade away.

4. Introspection

Studying abroad enables you to spend time alone and to work out what it is that drives you and motivates you. There will often be times that you will be on your own and will have to figure things out while studying abroad. That is no bad thing – it helps to make you stronger. 

5. Cross cultural learning and sensitivity

While abroad you have a unique opportunity to get to know 바카라사이트 culture and 바카라사이트 history of 바카라사이트 places you visit. Make sure you taste 바카라사이트 local food and go to different restaurants. Experience 바카라사이트 nightlife and explore as many new places as you can. Read 바카라사이트 news of 바카라사이트 country you are studying in. This will all help you to immerse yourself in its culture. 

6. Global perspectives

When you meet people while studying abroad, you can learn a lot about 바카라사이트ir perspectives. It exposes you to people that you wouldn't necessarily meet o바카라사이트rwise. Such interactions give you a global perspective, which will help you in your future career. 

I will always recommend that you seize any opportunity to study abroad, to explore 바카라사이트 world around you and to make lifelong memories.
