Through the Online Research Programme Elif was able to explore her passion for chemistry. By focusing on drug chemistry and the biosynthesis of chemicals, Elif deepened her understanding of the subject matter while honing her research skills. In an interview with Immerse, she stated, “I didn’t know that the chemistry of drugs would be an area that I would pursue, but when I started the course it became more clear that I should definitely go for it.” One of the key skills Elif gained from the Immerse programme was the development of academic writing skills. The course equipped her with the necessary tools to craft research papers and develop a relevant literature review.
Additionally, the programme provided guidance on formatting reports, preparing her for the demands of university-level studies.

Through her participation in the course, she was able to express her enthusiasm and insights more effectively, solidifying her suitability for her chosen course and aligning with Oxford’s academic style.
