Can you tell us a bit more about yourself? <\/h2>\n

My name is Chijindu Jennifer Nweke, and I am from the eastern part of Nigeria. Over the years, I have been fascinated by how science can create tangible solutions that improve people\u2019s lives. This passion led me to study Analytical Science with a focus on Drug Analysis and Toxicology <\/a>at RGU. <\/p>\n

I am particularly interested in understanding how substances, both beneficial and harmful, interact with the world around us and how we can leverage that knowledge to enhance safety and wellbeing.<\/p>\n

Why did you choose to study Analytical Science at RGU?<\/h2>\n

RGU stood out to me because of its strong emphasis on applying science to solve real-world problems. I was looking for a course that would challenge me academically and provide me with practical skills for making a difference in fields like pharmaceuticals and toxicology. The hands-on lab work and the opportunity to explore emerging issues, such as the environmental impact of drugs, really appealed to me.<\/p>\n

What has been the highlight of your degree?<\/h2>\n

The highlight of my degree has been my final project. I studied how microplastics can act as carriers for pharmaceuticals, potentially transporting these compounds into the food web. <\/p>\n

This is a fascinating and urgent issue and working on it felt incredibly rewarding. The project allowed me to combine my love for analytical techniques, environmental science, and real-world problem solving.<\/p>\n

Have you enjoyed studying on campus in Aberdeen?<\/h2>\n

Absolutely! The campus at RGU<\/a> has been a beautiful place to study. Being in Aberdeen<\/a>, a city that blends both vibrant energy and the calm of nature, has created a perfect environment for my studies. <\/p>\n

My favourite thing about the campus is how well-equipped the labs are. Having access to innovative technology and working in a professional environment has been an amazing experience. There is something special about working in the labs and watching your ideas come to life, it makes the whole experience incredibly fulfilling.<\/p>\n

Beyond that, I also love the sense of community on campus. The support and encouragement from both classmates and staff have made my time here truly memorable.<\/p>\n

How do you think the course will impact your career?<\/h2>\n

Specialising in drug analysis and toxicology has given me the tools to address critical issues like the safety of pharmaceuticals and their environmental impact. The hands-on experience I have gained with techniques like mass spectrometry and chromatography has been invaluable. <\/p>\n

I am confident that this degree has prepared me to take on challenges in fields like environmental toxicology, pharmaceuticals, and forensic science, and make a meaningful contribution to solving these complex problems.<\/p>\n
