Alumni Spotlight: Sonya, Population Health Sciences BSc

What is your fondest memory of your time at UCL?

As we were a smaller class, the support we received as students within the faculty was great. UCL also held a variety of shows and clubs which we could partake in.

Please tell us a bit about the work you are doing now.

Currently I work in the pharmaceutical sector as an epidemiologist where I help design and run studies using real-world data for clients (pharmaceutical, government or public authorities).

How did your UCL degree help you get to where you are now?

My undergraduate degree at UCL gave me great foundational skills, in terms of epidemiological knowledge as well as R programming skills, that I use in my current role. 

What have been your career highlights?

Being able to use what I learnt during my undergraduate degree and masters degree in my current job and continuing to develop my skillset and knowledge that stemmed from UCL.

What would be your advice for current students?

Enjoy every moment of it!
