Hi, I'm Angel.
I'm doing a first year PHD
at Warwick Law School.
The best thing about working with law
at Warwick Law School and my research, is the
multidisciplinary nature of the research.
You get to work with other
fields, at your choice,
If you feel like it will,
inform your research and one of the
things that I wanted from doing my
research and doing a PhD ultimately
is to have an impact in the world
and specifically in the way the
Third World relate to conflict.
So being apart of Warwick Law School,
you get to work with other disciplines
like politics and sociology,
and that can really inform the work
that we do in the law school, so,
the best thing about the law school
is also the research seminars that
they have on Wednesdays where they
invite professors from outside to come
and talk to us about their research,
and that's really informative because
sometimes you don't really know
what's going on in another field,
but when you hear about it,
I know for me personally,
it's kind of like it'll be wow,
that's really interesting,
and that is actually relevant to
the work that I'm doing today,
and that's really good.
And I've had a number of epiphanies
on my research just going
to the research seminars on Wednesdays.
On top of that, having an office,
a dedicated workspace where you can
come in and do your work at your own
time is really good because you get
to, and I know that I get out like 10
books from the library and having a
place to put it in itself is good,
and then you get to come
in whenever you like,
You have your own key, you
work with other people there,
which is also good,
because seeing other people work can
sometimes make you want to work harder,
so having the office,
having the research seminars and
having an amazing supervisor, which I'm
blessed to have is also nice because,
I want to work.
The reason I decided to do the
work is to have an impact and
having someone to guide me and to
keep me afloat because there's so
much knowledge out there is also
really good and really helpful.
Because the academics here have an
open door policy where you can drop
in whenever you'd like and you
can speak to them on the issues
that you're having.
So not only having my supervisor but
having the different academics within
the department is also really helpful.
Being here and Warwick is Warwick
It's an amazing world
renowned University
and you get all your library facilities.
If you have a book that you
want that they don't have,
they'll get it for you within two weeks,
which is really nice.
I guess the best thing about Warwick Law School
is the fact that if you want the community,
you have it.
If you want the support,
you have your academics.
And ultimately,
I want that old to culminate in
this research that will have an
impact in the wider world today.
