Name : Muhammad Aqil bin Zainudin
Course :
Civil and Structural Engineering (MEng)
Nationality :
Malaysian
Who am I?
Name,
done. Nationality, done (you can guess where I am from, it’s Malaysia). If you
are still reading seems that you are interested in me and you wanted to know
more. Heads up, I am a 20 years old proud married man, yes you heard me right.
I’m married to my lovely wife. So you can expect me to be very matured and
visionary. ‘Strive forward and conquer all’ is always my motto but fret not, I
am not a dictator nor a selfish person. Behind all that, I love to make
friends, oh my, did I just use the word love. Not a typo my friend. Meeting new
people, making acquaintances and forming relationships are the priorities in my
life because I believe connection is one of the most important thing in the
world to gain success. Furthermore, I am a hard-core coffee lover so if you
want to be my friend, grab a coffee or else. Kidding. And last but not least, I
am a sport freak. How freak? Let’s say I can name the sports I didn’t play. I
would say sports make everyone healthy and fit, yes I can’t deny that fact but
I treat sports as something more meaningful, a network building platform which
comes back to my nature, friends making machine.
Why UK and University of Sheffield specifically?
Other
than being the land of beautiful culture and history, I am a Potter fan. Flying
here has always been my dream since I was a kid. And Sheffield? I can say that
the living cost here is cheap, in fact the cheapest in UK according to a
student budget website, look it up. Not just that, for you who hates the
crowded hectic city life, do come here. The lifestyle is very calm and relax,
you could enjoy the city centre without being shoved or pushed. But that does
not mean the city is any less, top branded shops are here. I could sum up
Sheffield is an ideal city for a simple guy like me, not too much or not too
less. And the best part is the Peak District, a wonderful breath-taking view of
the nature and it is just half an hour drive. Stressed out studying? Take a
break and chill there.
Here
comes the serious business, my learning institution, THE UNIVERSITY OF
SHEFFIELD. As proud as its name, it is. Providing the best learning environment
for all students is like a promise here. You won’t be left out and if you are,
you are something wrong. The system here is very efficient, you have the online
learning environment(MOLE) where you can easily access anything about your
university, course, email and any related services here. It’s a balanced
learning environment where coursework is meant for your future and super
beneficial and the lecturers are friendly, knowledgeable and career
life-equipped (means you can ask for career advice and CV improvement, they are
great at it).
Why Civil and Structural Engineering?
Civil
and Structural Engineering is not as what people depicted, boring and not
challenging as other engineering branches. Do you see the city that you loved
and enjoyed so much? The tall buildings that make your nation proud? Or even
the water coming from your shower pipes? It will be my responsibility one day.
You control the city development and where does the majority population lived
in? Exactly, the city. Means you have the power to shape the society and not
just that, the environment counts on you too. Companies need you, people need
you, everyone needs you. I am in the first year and I am learning Autodesk
Revit, Matlab and constructing bridges, I could tell you it’s superbly
interesting and challenging in a good way. You are literally enhancing your
life skill technically and socially. Moreover, you are expected to work in a
group, not just between your course mate, but soon later in life, you will be
working along architects, mechanical engineers, land tenure etc. I would say
civil and structural engineering is an ideal course (just like me ;) ) where it
will mould you into a holistic person in the future.
Some Piece of Advice?
Do come
to the University of Sheffield and enrol in any of your desired engineering subject.
It will guide you automatically. Isn’t that so simple. I can guarantee it. Make
your steps here and just follow the great tides of the learning experiences and
you will be landed on a luxurious life island. Any hesitation contacts us, that
is why we are called the Ambassador. Give us jobs, we love it.
