Industry: University of Portsmouth Student (2019)
Programme taken: Bachelor of Science (Honours) Software Engineering (Top-up)
As a Systems Engineer, it can be really difficult to study as I need to juggle my time between my studies, family and career. I chose the University of Portsmouth because it has an excellent ranking in UK and comes with a good quality curriculum, duration and flexible schedule that totally suits my hectic IT professional lifestyle.
One of my key job responsibilities is to build processes and platforms to support software development lifecycles. By taking what I had learnt in my classroom to my workplace, I gained more confidence and mastery in communicating with other Software Engineers. I even applied better practices to performance tools, data structures, automation and even Agile methodologies to improve my work every day.
