Michelle Thorn: Biological Sciences BSc
As part of my degree in Biological Sciences at Brighton, I attended a field course in South Africa. After I graduated in 2006, I registered for a two year MPhil at Brighton and went back to South Africa to do my field work. I have been there for nearly three years now researching carnivores in non-protected areas, and I was lucky enough to find the funding I needed to transfer from MPhil to PhD. My lecturers at Brighton have been immensely supportive and have helped equip me with a broad range of skills and experience, giving me the best possible start in my biological career.
