Je-Ren Chen

Je-Ren Chen is a Computer Science PhD student on a UCL Graduate Research Scholarship and Overseas Research Scholarship.

They range from the arts and humanities to all technologies, and occur once or twice a week. I decided to pursue my career in academic research at UCL not only because of the university's efforts in popularising academic knowledge but also because of its prestigious computer graphics research group. My study was possible thanks to UCL's Graduate Research Scholarship and Overseas Research Scholarship.

Ming-Wei Chang

Ming-Wei Chang is a Drug Delivery PhD student, in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, on a UCL Overseas Research Scholarship.

"I left my job to come to UCL as a full-time research student. I had a dream to study further and to do advanced multidisciplinary research.

The reason I chose UCL, apart from its advanced research facilities and faculties, was because of the attitude of my supervisor who devotes his life to pursue outstanding research in science. I am also very fortunate to have a co-supervisor who is genuinely interested and really contributes to my work. Thanks to the Overseas Research Scholarship and my supervisor's support, I have the opportunity to explore my interest and pursue advanced research in biomedical engineering at UCL.
