 My name is Michael Chang and I'm currently working for a company called International Earth Sciences IEC Limited. My position at the company is as a senior project scientist. I logged into University of Auckland because it's a well-leading university. The physics degree here at University of Auckland provides a lot of content and gets more and more interesting every year, especially around the fiber optic side of topics. The experience I have helped us to develop critical thinking skills, how to solve the problem and understand the problem first. In my last two years of studying at the University of Auckland, especially during my internship time, gave me hands-on experience. You have to basically experiment the ideas that you have between the groups and that helped me to understand that communication skills are very important. The lectures here at the university use a proactive and experimental way to demonstrate the concepts I learned throughout my course. Every time when I successfully achieved my lab experiment, I felt like I have achieved something great because it's proven that the theories and concepts I learned in my lectures were true. Through all my courses and experiments, I learned that high quality results take hard work. My studies also helped me to become independent and develop skills in communication and analytics. I felt that my experiences here at the University of Auckland well prepared me for real-life situations and jobs.
