Student Profile

Vivian Igenewari

What it's like to study at Leeds:

I had to do a lot of background reading in the first semester. The lecturers are very understanding and agreed to extra classes, revision and personal tutorship. The combination of both the personal and professional touch made the difference for me. Now I am in my second semester and I have a better understanding of the basic concepts required hence, my studies are generally going on seamlessly.

An MSc generally requires proper time management and you can be able to add extra-curricular activities to your schedule without adversely affecting the studies. Cloud Computing is a very practical course and I have been exposed to a cloud testbed that exists in the school where I have learnt quite a lot from.

The best aspects of studying at the university:

The Student support team are great, they are always ready to answer the most trivial questions. I also enjoy all of the facilities on campus, including The Edge gym, libraries and the cafe's. The Leeds University Union has got a lot of Societies to help when you need to relax, there are even programs for student-parents and their children!
