Biomedical and Physiological Sciences FDSc
What are you doing now?
Since I graduated from the University of Westminster with Foundation Degree in Biomedical and Physiological Sciences, I was promoted to the position of Senior Scientific Officer. Studying at Westminster gave me an incredible theoretical experience to do my job as a laboratory technician effectively and efficiently.
What did you find most valuable about your course at Westminster?
The Foundation Degree also helped me immensely during my BSc in Biomedical Science at the University of Ulster, and I was able to graduate with first-class honours. This is because I had a strong foundation in Biomedical Science from Westminster.
Why would you recommend Westminster as a place to study?
The lectures are very proactive and they interact with students in a professional and cordial manner. They are always willing to support and guide students to achieve their dreams.
What was the best thing about being a student in London?
The environment is very friendly and as a student, you get the opportunity to meet and interact with experts in your field of study.
What advice would you give someone thinking of pursuing a similar career to you?
It is never too late to study Biomedical Science professionally, although it is quite challenging. My secret is dedication, hard work and focus.
