About this episode

In this episode, I'm joined by Justin Jacob, an MSc Finance (Finance and Investment) student from India, who shares his journey at Durham and reflects on the experiences that have shaped his postgraduate studies. We talk about finding a sense of belonging at Durham, taking part in a project that took him to China, and how to make the most of the additional opportunities available at Durham. It's an inspiring conversation about embracing new experiences, building confidence, and making the most of everything postgraduate life has to offer. The perspectives shared are based on Justin's personal experience and may not reflect every student’s journey.
