A forensic science degree enables me to learn a lot theoretically and practically.
What motivated you to study this degree/major?
I studied chemistry in year 12 and was really keen to pursue either forensics or chemistry, and UTS offered both – in one degree, which was a big plus.
What do you enjoy most about your degree?
Learning about the different interesting things that the degree offers and covers and what should be expected or encountered when pursuing this career path.
Why did you choose to study at UTS?
UTS offered the combination of chemistry and forensic science, which I was looking for in a degree.
What is it like to study at UTS Science?
With most science degrees, a lot of time is needed to be put in to complete a science degree but doing so enables us to learn a lot theoretically and practically.
Is there any advice you would give to students studying this degree?
You must be motivated and genuinely interested in what you've chosen otherwise it won't be worthwhile studying this degree. Try and get everything you can out of the degree and enjoy it.
What would you like to do once you complete by your degree?
I would like to find a job which will enable me to utilise all or most of the things that I've learnt during my degree.
