Thank you for the GSA experience which was interesting, thoughtful, enjoyable and gave me a lot of insight and knowledge into areas that I would not have been able to partake in from my postgraduate course. Jay Hinkley School of Computing
Doing the GSA awards definitely contributed significantly to my postgraduate experience in Kent. I got a chance to meet people from other disciplines and backgrounds I wouldn't have met otherwise. The GSA was an effortless way to go that extra mile, and made me really appreciate other schools of thought. I can honestly say that the GSA broadened my academic and personal horizon and I'm very glad to have had the chance to take part.
