“Supporting students on their professional journeys and aiding their development is a big source of motivation for me.”
Romina heads the assistant year programme at Galenica. She connects students with practical experience within the Galenica Group and guides them on their journey into the world of work.
“Our assistantship enables students to have direct contact with interesting companies from the Galenica network, such as Bichsel, Galexis and Medifilm. This allows them to make valuable contacts.”
Romina is particularly proud of the tailor-made assistant year programme at Galenica. The programme prepares students for their examinations and entry into the workplace in the best possible way. “This role motivates me and expands not only the students’ perspectives, but mine too.”
