One of the main differences [between study in Thailand and the UK] is the degree of emphasis on critical thinking and originality. I appreciate the UK environment that strongly promotes constructive criticism and tolerance of ideas, which is essential for the incubation of any groundbreaking discovery.

From my experience, my advice to new students is not to be afraid to try new things, especially during your Master's journey. It is totally fine for you to jump from one area to another. Strathclyde especially allows you to start studying from the most basic knowledge.

Everything from the lecturers, to the class content and facilities exceeded my expectations and gave me a fantastic journey here. My presentation skills, which I thought I had mastered from my undergraduate program, have been lifted to a whole new level where I learned how to make presenting even more engaging to audiences.
