There are diversity of students background which lead me to acknowledge more on the culture context. I have experienced a lot new things compare to where I come from. Moreover, my worst aspects are that my course is quite new and there’re not too many people within the major and it’s difficult for me to learn things from people who interested in the same field

My course is quite new and some times there are specific words within the subject and I find it difficult for me to understand. Moreover, the teacher and classmate are very open about the people’s ideas

No

The opportunities and support in every way is something that truly stood out to me. The research at essex is mind blowing especially in the field of psychology.

Its just been 5 months and I have already learnt so many things and that to practical exposure. I have learnt and have conducted individual EEG sessions on participants. I have learnt to use Psychopy software and have created my own stimuli for my dissertation and I have also learnt to use software like MATLAB. I thought statistics will give me a hard time but in my 1st term i learnt about fundamentals and now in 2nd term I'm doing R (computing language) so I'm very happy with my progress and skill development.
