Mudzunga Thangavhuelelo-Lucas:
My epic moment in the course was participating in the Carbon Audit project which was a partnership between Strathclyde University, Carbon Trust, the Princes Mayday and Scottish Businesses in the community. The audit emphasised the importance of climate change mitigation, energy and resource efficiency and provided me with the skills to conduct energy audits, develop energy management plans and to identify areas to improve energy efficiency; the skills I gained enabled me to get the job I am currently doing.
Laura McGregor: "After completing an MSc in Forensic Science at Strathclyde I was eager to stay on to do a PhD here because of the high standard of research and excellent reputation of the university."
