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

very first contact with UCL was its Lunch Hour Lectures. I was working

to access the free and inspiring lectures. 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

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. I am glad

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

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.

has met most of my expectations...
