Keith Reilly
HND in Applied Biological Science
I am 31 years old , and have come back to education , and I am really enjoying it .
Meeting new people and getting back into the habit of studying has been fantastic . My favourite part about the course is getting to be practical in class . It is hands on , but getting that experience is going to help me when I progress into a career within Science .
Ideally , I am looking to progress to university before getting a job in a lab , investigating cures , and doing a bit of research in that industry . There have been challenges , but it has been great getting back into it . The lecturers are really good and really understanding , and they are always there to take the time to help if there is anything that you may need extra help with .
“ The thing that I enjoy most about coming to Fife College is the great atmosphere and great students .”
