Veronica Tan
National University of Singapore
Major in Geography, Minor in Urban Studies
Expected Date of Graduation: May 2018
I am a third year Geography student at NUS, and I am also pursuing a minor in Urban Studies. I am currently taking part in the student exchange programme at UBC for the 2016 winter term.
Geography has been my favourite subject since I was 13: I love how Geography is such a diverse subject that encompasses many different things, such as the physical aspects of the environment and human interactions with the world. I am immensely impressed by the world as depicted by the subject, and I am always excited to learn about it in greater depth. I consider myself as a physical Geographer, especially after spending my past two summers in Thailand conducting research and learning about its physical environment.
I hope to incorporate my knowledge of Geography in my future career, either pursuing research or education.
