Hi everyone, I am Marija Sara. I am a postgraduate student studying MSc Biomedical Science (Infection Science). My journey at Coventry University started in 2019 when I did my foundation year in Applied Biosciences at CU Coventry. Upon completing my foundation year, I decided to move to Coventry University and do a BSc in Biomedical Science, I graduated with first class honours last year and am now doing my master's degree. I chose this career path to help people and learn more about diseases and how they can be prevented and treated. Apart from being a Unibuddy Ambassador, I am also a Health and Life Sciences Faculty Ambassador. I am now approaching five years at Coventry University and have experience in almost all levels of education. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me!

Michael
University of Aberdeen
Computing Science PhD or MSc
Hello there,
I am currently studying Information Technology with the goal of building a career in information systems protection.
Before I enrolled into the MSc IT at UoA, I worked as a freelance photographer, while running a photo printing and framing business. And before that, I co-founded a company that sought to connect customers to their favourite brands by helping them discover deals/discounts from these brands.
In between then and now, I have worked as an events management executive, and as a trainers' trainer.
Before moving to Aberdeen, I lived in Mauritius with my family.
I eagerly look forward to helping you settle in quickly.
