Bachelor of Science
"My career goal is to work out in the field doing geophysical surveying – specifically gravity surveying – and then secure a research and teaching role at a university.
Macquarie has prepared me perfectly for my future careers because not only have I had the opportunity to spend a lot of time in the field practicing different survey techniques, my practical classes have taught me how to apply and reduce the survey data I’ve gathered, giving me a full understanding of how that data can be used."
