Making education work for you

Think about what you aim to get out of your time in university. What can you do to adapt how you spend your time to the goals you want to achieve? A personal example, I wanted to enjoy university. So I found the tasks that I enjoyed, it turned out to be research, and tried to do more of it. I spent more time developing research-based skills. Maybe for you, you can use the project time to grow confidence as a kicka** programmer. Or maybe you want to get better at communication skills, then the hand ins are your time to think about how you are communicating with your audience (me), and how you might better expresss yourself.
