Justyna

University of Aberdeen

Medicine MBChB

Hi! My name is Justyna and I’m a graduate medical student from London. I completed my first degree in Biomedical Science, which led to my growing interest in cancer therapies and infectious diseases. I would also like to explore the potential career in anaesthetics. Outside of medical school, I like to lift weights at the gym or practice karate. I am learning Korean and Japanese and I love cooking/ baking various foods from these countries. I enjoy exploring new things and travelling the world so I am planning to do some of my working experience abroad. 

Katelyn

University of Aberdeen

Law with English Law LLB

My future career plans are to become a Barrister (if I move back to England) or an Advocate (if I remain in Scotland) once I've completed my Law degree. I didn't know anyone else coming to Scotland for university, but having previously done cheerleading, I decided to join the cheerleading society, and have met most of my university friends through there! Finding the motivation can sometimes be hard, but I enjoy rewarding my long hours in the library with a break at a local coffee shop.

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.
