Students’ Sharing

ISURU CHINTHANA GUNARATNE (Sri Lanka)

Faculty of Science and Technology (Bachelor of Science – Electromechanical Engineering)

Hello everyone! I am Isuru Chinthana Gunaratne and I am from the beautiful island most people refer to as “The Pearl of South Asia”, Sri Lanka. While being among the top ranked universities in Asia, the key reason why I choose to come to UM is English Being the main language of teaching and the abundant resources for students. I have always wanted to experience foreign cultures and specially to learn foreign language, UM provides a lot of language courses for students. Right now I am studying Portuguese and hoping to study Mandarin later. Since the day I got here everyone has been so supportive and the Residential College system with all the infrastructure facilities at UM made the transition even easier. I truly believe that having very talented classmates from all around the globe and being privileged enough to study under the guidance of outstanding teaching staffs will help me to become an excellent engineer.

People here are very friendly and approachable, everyone is willing to share their thoughts and experiences.

It is a great advantage no matter in furthering studies or finding a job. University of Macau hope that students would step out of their comfort zone to interact with different cultures and learn from them in a distinct environment. During the year, I have joined UM Dance Troupe which offers me a chance to perform in different activities and festivals, also helps me to build up self-confidence. Hence, studying here is definitely a wise choice that I have made.
