Meet Channeh Camara, a current master's student at the University of Turku and an UTUambassador 2024-2025!
"Hi! I am Channeh Camara from The Gambia, a first-year Materials Engineering major with a specialization in Health Technology Materials. I completed my bachelor's degree in biomedical engineering at Kocaeli University, Türkiye.
I chose this programme at UTU because of its interdisciplinary nature. It provides a unique opportunity to work on innovative solutions to real-world healthcare challenges. My passion for biomaterials was also another reason for choosing this programme. I believe that these materials can greatly influence the health tech sector. Looking ahead, I aspire to build a career as a materials engineer in a healthcare setting.
I am inspired by the degree of professionalism the professors at UTU possess. They are qualified and always ready to assist when needed. I appreciate the flexibility in my studies as well, as it allows me to focus on what I am truly passionate about, which is extremely important to me.
Studying at UTU has been something that I have always dreamt of, and I am excited to embark on this journey. I am still exploring Turku, and so far, I have been enjoying its best spots, along with the warmth of its people and the beauty of its nature.
UTU has a lot to offer, and I am excited to explore it all. Always up for a chat!"
