Her journey in one sentence
My journey after graduation was a new beginning full of challenges, in which I turned my passion for pharmacy into a continuous ambition to learn, grow and make a real impact.
Her story after graduation
About two months after graduating I got a job, thank God, and being a graduate of Baghdad College of Medical Sciences helped me a lot, because employers know the College’s standard and academic rigour.
I did not settle for work alone; I wanted to develop myself in another field I love, so I took online courses in skincare, earned certificates, and started working in this field.
After the first year, I decided to take the step I had aspired to from the start: a master’s degree in the specialty I love, Pharmacology and Toxicology, at the University of Baghdad. I prepared, studied and applied, and thank God I was accepted. I see every step I took after graduation as the reason I reached the next one.

“Make use of every opportunity to learn; the simple things you learn at college may become the foundation for something big in the future.”
A word to her College
My pride today lies not only in the steps I have reached, but in the place where I began. I am grateful to Baghdad College of Medical Sciences and to everyone who was part of my journey there, and I hope always to live up to my College’s expectations and represent it as it deserves.
