The Big Apple doesn't keep the doctors away

Health and Life Sciences students from De Montfort University have told how their career ambitions have been expanded following a #DMUglobal visit to New York.

Students from Psychology, Pharmacy, Forensic Science, Nursing, Audiology and Biomedical Science were among 1,000 students who travelled to Manhattan on the university’s biggest-ever overseas experience.

During their whirlwind tour they combined cultural activities with those designed to give them extra insight into their course and underpin academic studies.

Lema Yousoufi, a pharmacy student said:

Here everyone is on the go, it’s so fast-paced, completely different atmosphere to home. Coming to New York and seeing pharmacists has made me realise that actually, I could do this.
