I got married and moved here, and my husband has studied in the same university, which is how I ended up choosing to study here too. Medicinal Chemistry has always been something I've wanted to study and I was so excited to see that it was being offered this year. The programme has been very involving and interesting and the lecturers have all been brilliant. They've been very supportive and patient and they have always made time to see me when I've needed help. I've made a lot of friends and I've loved every minute of being here.
