Iulia-Victoria Margineanu, 21, from Drobeta-Turnu Severin in Romania, is currently studying BA (Hons) Public Relations, Marketing听and Events at 抖阴视频.

Why did you choose to study in Edinburgh/Scotland?

鈥淚 chose to do a degree in Scotland because I wanted to study in an English speaking country and find a course that offered more practical experience.

鈥淓dinburgh is a very lively city. There is always something new happening here. I鈥檝e enjoyed visiting the different sights, including Arthur鈥檚 Seat, Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh, Inverleith Park, Leith Walk and the Christmas markets.

鈥湺兑跏悠 is close to Edinburgh International Airport. As an international student, this is really important for me.

鈥淚 was also fortunate to have my costs paid by the Student Awards Agency For Scotland (SAAS).鈥澨

Why did you choose to study this course 抖阴视频?

鈥淚 chose the course because I wanted to do something creative, so I was looking for a marketing degree. I was glad to find that 抖阴视频 had not just a simple general marketing degree, but it also included public relations and events modules. So, I also chose this course because it meant more future career options and paths. This was very important for me because I was not sure what to do after finishing university.

鈥淚n addition to the course, which weighed a lot in my final decision, I chose 抖阴视频 because it looked really modern, including computers, communication with lecturers via email and the library facilities."

Do you enjoy living in the 抖阴视频 student accommodation on campus?听听

鈥淚鈥檝e been living in 抖阴视频 student accommodation for the past three years and there is a big chance I will be here next year as well.

鈥淚 think accommodation on campus has two plus points: being so close to the main 抖阴视频 academic building, as well as the fact that I have my own room with bathroom. Besides this, I would add the fact that there is always someone you can go if you have an accommodation issue. For example, if you need something repaired or replaced, accommodation services will solve it for you at no additional cost.

鈥淭he University and Students鈥 Union services sounded appealing too, as well as the variety of sports clubs and societies available.鈥

What has been the highlight of the course so far?

鈥淚n my opinion, the most interesting part of my course is the practical part. I get a lot of assignments where I have to come up with material based on what I鈥檓 learning and I really enjoy this aspect. For example, for marketing I had to create a website based on a marketing-related topic and for public relations I had to create a campaign.鈥

What is your top tip for future students who might be interested in this course?

鈥淏e organised. The course is very busy and you have a lot of individual work and team projects to do, so I believe it鈥檚 important to organise your time and activities wisely in order to do a good job and learn many new interesting things.

鈥淎t the same time, make the most of your student life. Go to sports and societies, volunteer, go sightseeing, go to events, hang out with your friends and make new friends.

鈥淚 recently became a 抖阴视频 Student Ambassador, which means I help at 抖阴视频 events, such as campus tours, school visits or the Queen 抖阴视频t Children鈥檚 University. I also volunteer at University events organised by 抖阴视频 student volunteers, as well as volunteering with external organisations like Girlguiding.鈥
