Warrick Angus - Honours

Warrick studied Honours in Biology and now works at Taronga Conservation Society as the Manager of the Australian Fauna Precinct. Since completing his degree, Warrick has worked on several documentaries and claims a highlight of his career “was a month in the field with Sir David Attenborough, when I assisted with the making of the series, Life in Cold Blood

“The Honours year allowed me to focus on one particular aspect of interest to me, redback spiders. My thesis was able to show previously unknown redback spider behaviours and habitat information. The support of my mentors, lecturers and peers was hugely important to the success of my project.”

Jungha Kim - Coursework

Jungha completed her Masters of Medical Physics and now works in breast cancer research.

”I was looking for a course that was challenging, and also something that I would be passionate about. I happened to read the coursework brochure from the University of Sydney, and found out about Medical Physics. I have always been interested in medical breakthrough, and it sounded exactly like what I wanted in a career. I am currently involved in breast cancer research at the University of Sydney, using knowledge that I have learnt throughout this course.”
