This, together with my final year project, allowed me to acquire a great set of skills and combine everything I had learned, from planning and setting up an experiment, to analysing large amounts of data and writing a report.

I believe opportunities like this, have paved my way towards my MSc in Cancer Immunology and Biotechnology, where I graduated top of the class and ultimately lead me to getting a job offer at Lonza, the biopharmaceutical company I currently work for.

There are many highlights of my time at Loughborough, from making friends for life, learning to be independent by living abroad, running a marathon whilst raising money for charity, and having access to state-of-the-art sports facilities.

I was also able to work in an amazing student job at the Student’s Union, as a trips chaperone assistant for two years. I truly believe Loughborough doesn't just provide you with top end education, but it is also a place with a huge range of extracurricular activities.
