Suvojit (Suvo) Bandopadhyaya

20 July 2023

PhD聽in Media and Communication

HOW TO APPLY

As a student both living and working in UC campus accommodation accommodation, Suvo had the opportunity to help make uni life better and more exciting for fellow residents.

"The highlight has definitely been the community and the quietness in our village. Plus I got to meet so many international students from different parts of the world and make friends with people from diverse backgrounds," he says.

"In addition to this, we hosted lots of events to keep residents engaged and feel included in the community."

Originally from Kolkata in India, Suvo had completed master鈥檚 study in media governance before deciding to travel overseas for doctoral studies.

It鈥檚 just fascinating, I鈥檓 doing research on social media and as a communication student I just find it amazing to study more about it. Canterbury gave me that option that I couldn鈥檛 find in my home country. After I finish my PhD I intend to become a lecturer and stay in academics.

Suvo recommends Media and Communications study here at UC to other students, because of his experiences so far balancing research with other opportunities.

"There鈥檚 so much opportunity out here so that鈥檚 really the good thing, that I can participate and do other things as well other than my research work.

"UC offers pretty diverse options and I think UC does give you that option to do something more apart from just studies, so come to UC not just to study but to excel in all fields."
