We are excited to share with you our recent experience at Kingston University’s Careers event. On Thursday 8th February, our team had the opportunity to present to Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences students at the University. The event aimed to provide students with an insight into the Commercial Science industry and explore potential career paths they could undertake.
Our team was thrilled to share their expertise with the students and engage in discussions around the industry. The event was a success, and we would like to express our gratitude to Kingston University for hosting such a fantastic event. We are proud to have been a part of it.
We would also like to extend our thanks to the students who participated in the event. Your enthusiasm and curiosity made for an engaging and productive discussion. We hope that our presentation has given you valuable insight into the Commercial Science industry, and we look forward to seeing some of you join us in the future.
At ACCSN, we believe in the importance of nurturing young talent and providing them with opportunities to explore and grow within their fields. We are committed to continuing our collaboration with Kingston University and other academic institutions to support students in their career development.
Once again, thank you to everyone involved in making this event a success. We are excited about the prospect of further collaboration and welcoming some of you into the industry soon.
