Nidhin Unnirajan, MSc in Electrical Power Engineering with Business, University of Strathclyde
24-year-old Nidhin Unnirajan is studying an MSc in Electrical Power Engineering with Business, at the University of Strathclyde. He was delighted to be awarded a Postgrad Solutions UK Study Bursary, and says, “I feel happy to receive this bursary. It’s a relief winning the bursary as a contribution toward the tuition fee. I also feel that my previous hard work has been appreciated for and it will motivate me to work harder this year.”
Nidhin is an international student, so the bursary will help him out a lot, he explains, “As an international student who is paying a £13,000 tuition fee, a contribution of £500 has made me able to invest this amount towards buying relevant text books and software’s necessary for passing this course."
He says of Postgrad.com, “It looks really helpful and is specially targeted for postgrad students. I am glad to find this website and will be using it as a guideline when I start my final project. I am also keeping an eye out on the students offer section.”
Nidhin chose the University of Strathclyde because it has one of the best Departments of Electrical and Electronics Engineering with many unique and world leading research activities and facilities. He has spent his first few weeks in Strathclyde getting acquainted with the post-graduation curriculum and the university campus, and he is really enjoying his postgraduate programme, “I have enjoyed the multiculturalism of the course as we have students from around the world with broad knowledge and industrial experience. The best element is the module of Power System Economics which enlightens on the Energy trading, Market and Asset management improving my commercial and business acumen.”
Nidhin did his original degree, a BEng, in Glasgow, so he decided to further his studies in Scotland. He explains, “The main motivation to come and study in UK was the recognition I would get for an international degree, it would improve my chances of getting a job and personally give me an opportunity to experience the outside world.”
Finally he says, “I would like to thank your team for choosing me for this award. I had applied for many other scholarships too but was unsuccessful, so I am glad to receive this one and will make the best use of this.”
