“I chose [TMU] because I wanted technical skills on top of theoretical knowledge. I started my undergrad in Architecture, transferred to Biomedical Sciences, and am now finishing my MSc in Molecular Science. I had many opportunities to grow personally and professionally. It’s been an interesting and challenging journey."
