Name: <\/strong>Elizabeth Kaye<\/p>\n

Subject: \u00a0<\/strong>BA Human Geography and International Relations<\/a><\/p>\n

Year Graduated: <\/strong>2015<\/p>\n

College: <\/strong>County<\/a><\/p>\n

Where are you now and what are you doing?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Having worked in a University in Mainland China for a year after graduation, I have been working for an educational charity in Hong Kong for the last two years. I help with spoken English in government secondary schools and post-secondary education centres alongside delivering various courses, workshops and summer camps in the city.<\/p>\n

What would you like to do next?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I will be starting my MA in Social Anthropology at SOAS University of London in September 2018.<\/p>\n

Why did you choose to study at Lancaster?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was attracted by\u00a0the interesting modules in LEC<\/a> and flexibility of the courses as well as the University’s collegiate system<\/a>. Upon visiting the campus I fell in love with the beautiful rural location and the ducklings, I still miss them to this day!<\/p>\n

What was your favourite part of your degree and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The opportunity to undertake primary research in New York<\/a> (as part of a LEC field course) and India (for my final year project).<\/p>\n

How do you think your time at Lancaster prepared you for what you\u2019re currently doing?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My degree gave me a great passion for exploring and learning more about the world and taught me the cultural sensitivities I need to work with people from all over the globe every day.\u00a0 I am really excited to use my transferable academic skills in my upcoming masters course.<\/p>\n

What did you enjoy most about your time at Lancaster? (Including extra-curricular activities and beyond?)<\/strong><\/p>\n

I really loved being part of Lancaster University’s friendly, laid back community and made life-long friends there. I am so grateful\u00a0to\u00a0all the staff who were an amazing source of inspiration\u00a0and encouragement throughout my degree.\u00a0Outside of the classroom I loved being a member of the dance society (LUDanS)<\/a> and getting to take part in shows and musicals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
