The structure of my degree allowed me to take modules across\u00a0multiple different departments, which helped me better understand where my interests lay. The flexibility was really great for me, as I started off studying a lot of chemistry within my degree. Now I have\u00a0moved more towards life sciences, which I wouldn&#8217;t have\u00a0been able to do otherwise. I also liked having the option to do a year in industry, and I knew that this was something that the University of Bath was very well known for and would be well equipped to support me with.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><strong>What do you hope to do with your STEM qualifications?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I really enjoy working in the lab and would be keen to pursue a career in immunology research.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why do you think science is important in all our lives?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I think science is important because it helps us understand the world around us, and what we are able to do with new research can drastically improve the lives of many people.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What science and maths influences came from your time at Emanuel?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I always enjoyed studying STEM subjects at school\u00a0because I liked the way they made me think and the problem-solving\u00a0skills I was able to apply to many situations. The support from my teachers also reinforced a positive experience, and there were always opportunities to stretch and challenge myself, which I found very rewarding.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you love about science\/the courses you have taken?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I love that there is always something new to learn, and that it is applied in everyday life. Within my current placement, I am really enjoying having the opportunity to use new technologies and develop a deeper understanding of immunology through first-hand experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is something that you loved being a part of at Emanuel?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I really liked all the opportunities that were available to us as pupils. I loved being a part of the boathouse and the sense of community that existed within that space. I always really looked forward to training with the team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What positives do you think the new science and dining building will add to the school? Why is it important to have modern facilities for pupils?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Hopefully, having more science classrooms will encourage more pupils to pursue STEM related subjects, and modern facilities will help pupils to learn to the best of their ability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are you studying and where?
