Student Profiles
Abishek Meshram
(MBA Supply Chain Management)
"Aberystwyth University has a very amazing green campus. It is very close to our accommodation. It is the oldest university in Wales and have its own reputation throughout the world. One gets free access to the gym and to play other sports. Our business school professors are very experienced and each of them has their unique teaching style which makes the subjects more interesting. And, therefore this University is known for its high student satisfaction rate.
Our supply chain modules are very well designed. From strategy & operations, finance & acc to deep knowledge of supply chain & logistics which also covers the sustainable techniques and green aspects, which are very helpful for future career. I like the way our professors make us involve in different group activities during our class such as group presentation, making reports and doing analysis of different companies etc. All these not only helps us to improve our skills and knowledge but at the same time, we end up making new friends. I like the way my supply chain professor Mr. Tim goes deep into each and every topic and gives us a very detailed explanation."
Avishaa Kulkarni
(BSc Psychology)
"Aber has a very close knit community with very kind people. Aber being a student town, it was very easy to adjust here. I was easily accustomed to the student life here with tons of friends who became a second family. I was always treated like its own by Aber!"
Aayantan Patra
(LLM International Law and Criminology of Armed Conflict)
"The best memory I can recall is the International Students meet up held in Aberystwyth. The student representatives of each country portrayed their culture, food, societal norms which was a delightful and enriching experience for us. I represented my country India, wore our ethnic dress Kurta and Pyajama, cooked Chicken Pakora and Gajar Halwa ( Carrot Halwa) which was very much enjoyed by the guests and participants of the event. My fellow batch mate performed Bharat Natyam which was very much appreciated by the audience, some students from Africa were colouring the faces of other students of their national flags."
Vikram Kittagali Mahadevaiah
(MSc Livestock Science)
"Aberystwyth as a town is fabulous and the best part about it is the coastline, and the most friendly people out there, they are truly amazing and welcoming. Aberystwyth University has made me more confident in life as a student. It has taught me to work independently."
Nireeksha Nelamangala Rajeev
(BSc Tourism Management)
"Adjusting in Aber was quite easy as people are very warm and welcoming. I love the people, the beautiful scenery and the sea! I will miss the sea walks and bonfires."
Archi Das
(BSc Environmental Science)
"My Favourite thing about Aberystwyth has to be the environment. Not only the natural one which Aber is absolutely rich in, from beautiful coastlines to hills to rivers, the town has everything I could ever wish for. But also, the people. Both the university and the town have the friendliest people and will always give the warmest of welcomes every time you come back."
