Why Virtual TSM?
What motivates you to join TSM?
I want to join TSM for a number of reasons. First and foremost, I feel that this study mission is unlike the rest, it pushes students to be an innovative and forward thinking individual evidently from this sign up process. Even though, the competition for this study mission is very steep with so many capable students signing up for it, it is still very appealing to me as I want to be pushed and challenged in order to improve myself.
Secondly, I want to learn skills that can help me build a long and successful career with and I know that the skills and knowledge acquire in this study mission is definitely transferable and will benefit me in the near future.
Thirdly, I want to join this TSM because of the amount of autonomy given to students to create their own start up projects. This creates an immense sense of satisfaction for me as I truly enjoy seeing my work coming into life.
Where would you like to visit virtually?
I would like to visit Silicon Valley in California if given a chance. I believe that it is the dream of many technology students like myself to visit the home of tech start ups and global technology companies. Besides that, I want to see how is it like to be working alongside some of the brightest minds in the technology industry as I strongly believe that this will help me to improve myself.
