Objectives / personal statement

As a Master student in Biology I am connected to the Faculty X of the Radboud University. My research
interests are mainly focused in the field of entrepreneurship within biology. During my internship at
company X, I was able to apply my knowledge about entrepreneurship and biology with startups. I have
experienced that this is my passion: to pioneer, to test my knowledge and create something beautiful.
My dream after graduation is to find a job in which this is possible.
