Embry‑Riddle grad Nina Egbalic talks about her hands-on experiences in various labs, which led to her landing a job at the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.
Forensic Biology graduate Nina Egbalic (’19) says the hands-on experiences she got at Embry‑Riddle have helped her “hit the ground running” by opening doors to several dynamic career options.
Specifically, she credits an internship at The Biomechanics, a physical therapy and sports medicine center near the Prescott Campus, with helping her chart a career course she’s excited about.
“I was able to learn a lot of individual knowledge from the different therapists I got to work with,” she said.
And her degree from a renowned STEM school like Embry‑Riddle has Egbalic feeling “more than ready” to tackle whatever opportunities her future may offer.
I think the coolest part about being a Forensic Biology major is the hands-on lab experiences that we get – because once we graduate we get these awesome job opportunities. And I’m one of them.
