Meet our mentor: Jannatun

She’s currently completing her masters degree in Human Resource. She has an interest in social work, social media, sports and music.

Finally, a little message from Jannatun:


Hi everyone. First off, I just want to say massive congratulations on getting into the University of South Wales. I'm Jannat. I come from Bangladesh. I'm doing MSc in HRM. I did my Bachelors on Economics in my back home. My future goal is to be a HR officer so I picked this course in USW and I'm enjoying it. If you've got any questions you wish to ask me before arriving, please don't hesitate to contact. I'm happy to help.

🌸Hi everyone, I’ve been the social media admin for the Student Mentoring and Study Skills pages for the last two years! I’m graduating now so will be moving on from the role but i wanted to take the time to share my experience of the mentoring scheme; and hopefully encourage more students to get involved.

I’ve had a lot of fun over the past two years and joining the mentoring scheme has allowed me to become more involved in university life and help fellow students along the way. From events planning to post creating, the scheme has given me a wide range of opportunities to enhance my creative skills.

If you also want to make the most of your university experience and meet new people, I’d really recommend contacting the team for more information!☺️

I hope you all have a great summer and to those also graduating this year, congratulations!🎉
