Tianxing Zhou is a postgraduate student at UCL Anthropology, studying the Immersive Factual Storytelling MA at UCL East. Here she tells us more about her experience as a UCL student so far…

 

Hi there! I'm Tianxing Zhou, the Student Representative for the Immersive Factual Storytelling MA at UCL East. I'm here to study interactive Virtual Reality experiences, spatial audio, and storytelling techniques. As a member of Gen Z and a female with dual roles of a Bachelor in Computer Science and a Sci-Fi writer, I really appreciate UCL's School for the Creative and Cultural Industries as it offers an interdisciplinary environment that highly values the creative human perspective that enables me to integrate technology with arts and culture effectively in our fast-evolving world, as well as to pursue the direction I'm passionate about exploring.

At UCL East, the cutting-edge technology, the outstanding faculty members from the BBC VR Hub, diverse campus activities, and extraordinary peers with various backgrounds have all contributed to making my campus experience exceptionally satisfying, which have not only enhanced my professional expertise and skills but have also fostered a deep sense of inclusiveness and diversity.

If you are a dreamer, come prepared with your creativity. Here, you will find endless possibilities!
