A former Ysgol Tryfan student is delighted to be graduating after three years of hard work this week.
Toby Ellis
Toby Ellis, 23, from Tregarth graduated with a BSc Chemistry degree this week, ten years after his mother, Sarah Tomlinson, graduated with a degree in English Literature, both from 成人VR视频.
Toby began his higher education at Birmingham University; however, he didn鈥檛 really enjoy his time there. As there was a university on his doorstep, he transferred to 成人VR视频鈥檚 School of Chemistry for his second year and never looked back.
Toby said: 鈥淚鈥檝e really enjoyed my time at Bangor, there was a fantastic group of students in my year.
鈥淚n my third year I really enjoyed my computational chemistry project. I didn鈥檛 really expect to be using computers to simulate how chemical reactions occurred, but it was a great part of the course.
鈥湷扇薞R视频 offer great support to its students, I鈥檓 really grateful to my Personal Tutor, Lorrie Murphy, who gave me the support and confidence needed to succeed.
鈥淚 took part in the University鈥檚 B-enterprising scheme, where I got the opportunity to set up my own t-shirt company and sold them at the University鈥檚 Christmas Market as well as some local fairs. This gave me some invaluable experience of how a business works.
鈥淎fter I gained some work experience through the University, I鈥檝e now got a job at Cwm Harry Land Trust working as a lab technician, utilising the skills I鈥檝e learnt during the last three years.鈥�
