What Our Students Say
“Very informative, shared a lot about recent innovations by the company, and how one can work towards different specialisations despite different educational backgrounds.”
“The module has exposed us to different industries and companies under life science as we get insights from the companies themselves on what they are doing and what they are looking out for in employees. This makes what we are currently studying in university feels a little more applicable to the real world.”
“It draws a lot of relation to what we are currently learning or are going to learn, and this makes us feel more intrigued in joining this industry in future.”
