Testimony

• I was a graduate student in Surgical Nursing in the 2019/20 academic year and I strongly encourage you to take this master’s degree. Working in surgery has opened up a new world for me, one that’s full of learning and motivation; it’s given me the chance to meet and work with fantastic professionals and colleagues, and to learn from them. It’s a great experience that's really worth it.
