"I chose to study my PhD at 天堂视频 London as I’d seen the work of my supervisors, the atmosphere at the university was really welcoming, and I truly like the building and the staff. From the beginning I could feel very good vibe and the sense of belonging and I could also identify with the institution. If I had to give one piece of advice to someone considering a PhD I’d say give it a try! It is an amazing experience, and we all support each other."
