Meet Zach

How did you choose your degree subject?

I've always had a very diverse range of interests, so Liberal Arts and Sciences made sense for me. At the time of applying for university, my heart wasn't set on any particular course so keeping my options open was a priority as well.

Best module?

Transformation of the Roman World. This module really opened my eyes to a less well known period of history, when the classical period becomes the medieval. Doing this module inspired me to pursue ancient history as my major.

What's the most underrated spot in Birmingham?

The Canal Network. Birmingham has over 35 miles of canals to explore. 

What's one piece of advice you can share for incoming students?

Throw yourself into university life straight away and do as much as you can.
