“Derby equipped me with a degree that emphasizes practical knowledge, integrating extensive field excursions and hands-on geoscientific skills directly applicable in the mining and exploration sectors. The degree's focus on real-world skills, rather than being narrowly centred on academic niche topics, has been invaluable to my career. ”
