E5: Student Productivity with Parisha Mistry

Time management at university can be difficult, especially with the added pressure of needing to work a job outside of academic hours.
Our first guest on Uni Unplugged is no stranger to long days, and a jam-packed schedule - from leading the aerospace society at the University of Sheffield while juggling multiple jobs, to stepping up as Project Manager for a student drone team, she’s done it all. 
In today’s episode, we are joined by Parisha Mistry, 3rd year aerospace student and good friend, to discuss what it’s like to juggle multiple responsibilities as a student, and our top tips for time management.

In this episode, we explore our first year, how our perceptions of university have changed over time, and what we'd do differently looking back.
We discuss taking notes in 1st year, and how we learnt to get the most out of lectures - optimising for efficiency using the 80/20 rule, as well as explaining why your final grade isn't the most important metric of success. 
Finally, we talk about why and how you should get involved in societies and projects along with our best bits of advice for 1st years.

E1: Pilot

In this episode, the very first of the Uni Unplugged podcast, we recount our high school journeys, friendship groups, and our mindsets towards academic achievement, including how they’ve changed as we've entered university to study engineering. We cover our motivations for studying aerospace, as well as our experiences of university: entering our first year during lockdown, taking part in student projects in our second year, and eventually arriving at the present day, as we continue our studies in our third year. We discuss our reasons for starting the podcast, how it came about, and our plans for the future. Thanks for listening, and we hope you enjoy!
