Summary

I am a highly motivated student at The University of Dundee studying Pharmacology within the Faculty of Life Sciences. I have had an interest in human biology from early on in my high school years and was delighted to achieve a place on The University of Dundee's Pharmacology program. I have applied myself and am targeting a First-Class Honours classification. I am now seeking opportunities to acquire new skills and industry experience in the Science sector that will complement my learning and help me progress to a fulfilling career in the pharmaceutical industry. Having already undertaken part of my studies abroad, I can demonstrate creativity, determination and resilience when seeking out new opportunities and making the most of them.
