Hear about Joel's journey from Clinical Trials MSc student to Junior Clinical Practitioner at University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍøH).

Your time at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø

Why did you choose to study at the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Institute of Clinical Trials and Methodology (ICTM)?

As an undergraduate, I realised I wanted a career in clinical trials. ICTM was one of the few institutions which covered clinical trials to a world class standard.

What excited you about studying the Clinical Trials MSc at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø? 

The most exciting part of the MSc course were the opportunities to discuss scenarios which were bound to arise in our careers with peers and lecturers. These discussions meant that everything we were learning on trial set-up and design, regulatory frameworks, statistics, and trial management, wasn’t just theory, but was put into practice. 

Where are you now? 

After graduating, I started working at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍøH as a Data Manager and then as a Junior Clinical Practitioner. Since day one at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍøH, I have appreciated the value that the MSc Clinical Trials has provided me, as nearly everything I do builds from the knowledge I acquired during the course.
