The professor already knows something about Clare from her ______.
Professor: Good morning. Your name is Clare Sanders, isn’t it?
Student: That’s right.
Professor: Well, Clare, as we explained in the letter, in this interview I’d
like to talk about some of the things that you mentioned in
your
application form
, such as your experience and
academic Q21
background
. Q22
Clare: I see.
Professor: Now, for your undergraduate degree, you studied
geography
, Q23
right?
Clare: That’s correct. At the Scottish National University.
Professor: SNU is a very prestigious university. Apart from that, were there any other reasons that you chose to study there?
Clare: Well, your correct in suggesting that the main reason I went there
was due to the superior quality of the university, but there were
two other reasons. The first was that it is reasonably far from my
home.
I wanted to be as independent as possible
from my family Q24
whilst I was studying and felt that that was one way of achieving
that aim. The other reason was that the university offered an
excellent programme of summer work in developing countries and
that’s something I was very keen on.
Professor: That would be the Livingstone Project?
Clare: That’s right.
Professor: I’d like to return to that in a minute. Let me just check the optional
courses you took in your
third year
. Q25
Clare: The two compulsory courses were Methodology in Geography
and Statistical Analysis and I chose Infrastructure, Development
Issues and Geology in addition to those.
Professor: I see. You clearly decided to focus more on the
human geography
Q26
side of things.
Clare: Yes. I had worked on development projects abroad for two
summers
as part of the Livingstone Project. The first project was Q27
in India and the second was in Sierra Leone.
Professor: Could you tell me the main aims of the projects and how you contributed?
Clare: The Indian project was to ensure that a village had adequate supplies of fresh water and adequate sanitation. On that project, my role was to help lay
pipes and put together various pieces of equipment. The project in Sierra Leone involved improving the infrastructure. The aim was to create rudimentary
roads between villages so that they could receive aid and so that they could get agricultural products, particularly fruit and vegetables, to the capital and
larger towns. My job was to help choose the best route for the roads, minimising any impact on the environment whilst maximising efficiency.
Professor: How did you find the experiences?
Clare: The Indian project was helpful in that it was my first experience
abroad and I got to see how small development projects can really
make a difference. However, I found the
climate
... well, it was Q28
extremely hot and humid and we were doing a lot of physical
work, so it was ... well, it made you appreciate air conditioning,
for a start! The second project ... well, I enjoyed that a lot more.
There was some physical work, but we had some machinery to
help us clear paths through
vegetation
. I really enjoyed being able Q29
to put what I had learned into practise. For example, we had to
choose a route on a map first of all, according to the contours of
hills and valleys. Then we had to explore the ground and check
that it was really a suitable route.
Professor: And now you’ve decided to take a Masters’ Degree in
Development
Studies
as a result. Great. Well, I just have a few more questions Q30
regarding ...
