“One of the biggest highlights of my student life in SMU would be the various orientations that I joined in my freshman year! Joining these orientations enabled me to form lifelong friendships and gave me a glimpse of the exciting campus life that the university has to offer.”

Have you had any international experiences at SMU so far? 

I am currently on an international exchange at the University of St Gallen in Switzerland. This exchange programme has been the highlight of my university life as I was able to independently travel around Europe while forging new bonds with Europeans around the world and strengthening friendships with my existing SMU schoolmates.  


How has your SMU scholarship benefitted you so far? 

The SMU Merit Scholarship has provided me with a supportive network of like-minded peers under the same scholarship who are equally motivated to work hard and play hard during the semester.


What is your favourite food to get on campus?  

The fried chicken from O’Bok Danang Korean cafe & Fried chicken located below the SMU library – there is an abundance of flavours to choose from. 


Name your favourite class/mod at SMU. 

Data Modelling & Visualisation (DMV) as the skillsets picked up in this course has been extremely useful at my various internship stints.
