Personal Branding
Your brand is your reputation – the perception of you held by the external world. It is the combination of personal
attributes, values, drivers, strengths, and passions you draw from that differentiates your unique promise of value from your peers, and helps those assessing you to determine if
they should hire you or do business with you.

Useful Tools
Project 1 !!Creating superdense data storage – University of Southampton !!
At the University of Southampton, researchers are working to create a way to store data in a superdense form for centuries, using nanostructured glass. Researchers at the university are moulding silica glass into a very stable and safe form of portable memory, which could be utilised by organisations with large archives. Coined as the ‘Superman memory crystal’, the data is recorded via self-assembled nanostructures created in fused quartz. The storage method allows for up to 360 terabytes of data capacity per disk (enough to hold 72
million photos) and a practically unlimited lifetime, in addition to thermal stability up to 1000°C. !!!Project 2!!
Carbon Capture Pilot Plant – Imperial College London !!The Carbon Capture Pilot Plant at Imperial College London is the most advanced facility of its kind in the world. Stretching over four stories,
the plant demonstrates best practice in capturing and storing harmful carbon dioxide before it is released into the atmosphere. The plant brings together academics, students and industrial partners, to test and develop new ways of capturing and harnessing carbon dioxide emissions. The £2 million plant was unveiled in 2012, and features a wide variety of advanced control and instrumentation technology,
meaning students are trained to work with a range of different industrial plant systems. !!!http://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/educationpicturegalleries/11750796/Ten-groundbreaking-university-research-projects.html?
