​The overseas exchange experience was undoubtedly the best part of my life as an undergraduate. Living abroad in Vancouver had been extremely eye-opening in more ways than one, from the well-structured academic curriculum in University of British Columbia to the vast and majestic natural landscape all around. Courses are conducted very much differently from that in Singapore, and it was a refreshingly novel approach towards academic rigour.

It was an incredibly valuable experience to work at the Data Science team in McLaren Applied Technologies (MAT), London. MAT has a unique ‘tech start up’ culture and the workplace environment was very flexible and comfortable. I was given a fair amount of autonomy for my professional attachment project and my supervisors had conducted frequent catch-up sessions to ensure that I can raise queries when needed. Taking part in their ‘what-are-we-up-to’ meetings also gave me more exposure to the technologies used in the industry and piqued my academic interests. My module selection at Imperial College London was also largely influenced by my time at MAT, as I could relate the academic knowledge to the tools used in the industry.
