Hey there, my name is Zaid,
this is a day in the life of a full time post graduate student
it's Friday morning
a busy day for me and an early start
now I'm on my way to University, to the campus
so I hope you will enjoy
this tour with me
So this is the atrium at Kedleston road where my lectures are based
I like it because everything I need as a student
from snacks
to services and facilities could be found here
also many different events are running here at the atrium
and my favourite one is careers fair
Hi
nice shirt by the way I like the colour
well I mean it's the exact antithesis of cool isn't it, it's warm
It's going to be a long day
I think yeah but this time we will have more debate and group activities so it will be better
not too long
it's not short and it's not too long by the way
Yeah we just arrived early, I thought we are late but we are not, so
Adi went to the lecture, I need to go with him now and I can't film inside, so
see you in four hours, bye
Ok, lecture is over, time for lunch
Ok, lunch is done, time for gym
Come on, let's get this done
Ok leave me know, I'll catch you in a minute
So, this is the quiet area in the library
as a post graduate student I used to come here to do some reading
I prefer the silent room where you will have a quiet environment suitable for
whatever you are doing
and there is also a quiet zone and discussion zones
trust me you will not find a better place than the library to do your assignments or research
Let's talk about what the University offers beside your degree
University offers for students different
facilities and services
entertainment, for example some societies
employment services, healthcare and international student help
and typically the one I use most as an international student is the international student centre
they help with visas, they help with setting up bank accounts
and where to find a doctor for example
and places to visit in the city
Also another service or centre is the student employment agency
they will help you find some work opportunities, and
you also can register as a student ambassador
and help at open days
and this will help you to improve your skills
and get paid too
Ok, time for home
actually it's time to meet some friends
I have some friends who lives in halls, I don't live in halls myself but you can as a post graduate student
and we used to meet in the common areas and play some playstation and spend some time together
oh I didn't mention, as a student you can use the Uni bus for free
and it will take you around the city
it goes from all campuses, from sites, halls
and to the train station, so
yeah, the bus is here, I need to take it now
and my hand gets tired so take the camera
I hope you enjoyed the vlog, it was my first time to film video
I'm not experienced but I hope you will love it
and enjoy your time see you later
see you guys
