Abhishek
University of Strathclyde
MSc Forensic Science
Hey there! I’m a doctor who spent six incredible years in Ukraine studying medicine. During my medical studies, I found myself completely fascinated by forensic medicine classes, where science meets investigation. That interest slowly grew into a passion for connecting medical and forensic knowledge to do something meaningful, research that can both save lives and help catch culprits (whether that culprit is a disease or a criminal!).
Even though I’m not particularly interested in pursuing licensing exams or working in clinical practice, I’ve always been passionate about the subject and staying connected to it and its constant evolution is really important to me, it’s still a big part of who I am; what excites me more is pathbreaking research and discovery. My goal is to become a leading researcher in this field, contributing to work that bridges the gap between medicine and forensics.
If you’re curious about studying abroad, or just want to chat about science, or life as a student, feel free to reach out! I’d be more than happy to connect and share my experiences.

Hey there!
I'm Leilani, an international student studying forensic science, and I hope to one day open up a lab back in my home country! I enjoy baking, brownies specifically, listening to music, and meeting new people! I'm half Samoan, and that automatically makes me a sucker for all sorts of sports like football, rugby, and many more! Being an international student can seem scary, but with the helpful community at USW, I have managed to make a home away from home. I understand that moving away from home and making a big change for university is a little daunting, but with a little guidance and help, it'll be a breeze. I'd be happy to help give you this guidance!
