  • Jadilah nyaman untuk merasa tidak nyaman

Janganlah takut untuk merasa tidak nyaman. Sering kali kamu bisa menemukan kesempatan yang kamu pikir tidak bisa kamu lakukan. Tidak apa-apa jika kamu merasa tidak nyaman dan selalu cobalah hal baru. Karena kamu tidak pernah tahu sebelum benar-benar melakukannya. Nikmatilah mempelajari hal-hal baru dan jangan takut untuk meminta bantuan orang lain.

 

  • Hilangkan stereotip gender

Memilih bidang yang jarang diambil orang lain dengan gender yang sama memanglah keputusan yang sulit. Namun yang lebih menantang adalah keteguhanmu untuk tetap berada di bidang ini ketika terus menerus dihadapkan pada tindakan dan opini yang bertentangan. Sadari bahwa ada bias internal yang menentang gendermu. Namun, jangan biarkan hal tersebut melukai harga dirimu dan membatasi apa yang dapat kamu lakukan. Bersinarlah dengan keunikanmu dan tunjukkan bakat yang sudah kamu kembangkan.

 

  • Bangun jaringan menuju kesuksesan

Ada yang bilang kamu harus unggul di matematika untuk bisa berkarier di STEM. Mungkin mitos ini memang benar. Namun membangun jaringan sangatlah penting untuk menjadi sukses di bidang STEM. Membangun jaringan dapat dimulai dari berpartisipasi dalam klub, berlangganan koran tentang teknologi, atau menemui dosen pada jam kerjanya.

7 Tips Agar Tetap Aman Selama Berkuliah di Luar Negeri

Topik : Kuliah di UK dan Kuliah di Inggris

Berkuliah di luar negeri memang sangat menyenangkan. Kita dapat menjelajahi tempat dan budaya baru. Namun, kita harus tetap waspada akan kemungkinan risiko yang dapat terjadi. Untuk itu, ini dia 7 tips agar selama kamu tinggal di luar negeri selalu bahagia, produktif dan aman:

 

1. Cari tahu tempat tujuanmu

Hal terpenting yang perlu kamu lakukan adalah mencari tahu informasi tentang tempat yang ingin kamu tuju. Cari tahu tentang daerah mana saja yang aman untuk dikunjungi, kapan saja waktu yang tidak cocok untuk bepergian, kemungkinan penipuan, dan lain-lain.

 

 2. Pelajari adat dan budaya lokal

Setelah mencari tahu tentang tempat tujuanmu, jangan lupa untuk memperhatikan hukum dan adat setempat. Di beberapa negara, kamu juga perlu berhati-hati untuk mendiskusikan topik-topik sensitif.

 

3. Bersiaplah untuk keadaan darurat

Buatlah salinan dokumen-dokumen penting seperti paspor, visa, serta konfirmasi hotel dan pesawat dan pisahkan dari dokumen aslinya. Untuk lebih aman, kamu bisa membuat salinan secara digital di ponsel atau laptop. Jadi jika dokumenmu ada yang hilang, kamu punya salinannya dan bisa membuat dokumen baru lebih cepat.

Jangan lupa untuk merencanakan apa yang harus kamu lakukan pada keadaan darurat. Tulislah nomor telepon untuk layanan darurat dan kedutaan besar sebelum kamu berangkat.

 

 4. Jagalah kesehatanmu

Jika kamu akan pergi ke negara yang mengharuskan untuk melakukan vaksin atau pengobatan khusus, ada baiknya kamu mengunjungi rumah sakit setempat. Pastikan untuk membawa obat-obatan secukupnya untuk berjaga-jaga jika kesehatanmu menurun.

 

 5. Amankan peralatan digitalmu

Sangatlah disarankan untuk mengunci ponselmu ketika bepergian. Jadi jika ponselmu hilang atau dicuri, data pribadimu tetap aman.

 

 6. Jagalah keamanan pribadi dengan serius

Di mana pun kamu berada, kamu harus tetap waspada. Kejahatan bisa terjadi di mana saja. Kejahatan yang paling sering dialami adalah pencopetan dan pencurian barang bawaan. Ini terjadi karena korban tidak memperhatikan apa yang terjadi di sekelilingnya. Selalu awasi barang pribadimu untuk meminimalisir hal yang tidak diinginkan.

 

 7. Hindari masalah sipil dan politik

Jangan mengikuti atau menonton gerombolan atau demonstrasi massa. Protes tersebut mungkin akan menjadi tidak terkendali dan mengancam keselamatan kamu.
