Ehsan studied biology in his home country of Iran, earning both a bachelor’s and master’s degree before going to work in different labs. After moving to the United States in 2016, Ehsan wanted to continue his education. “I knew from the beginning that I would pursue what I started back home because I really enjoy doing it,” he says. “What brought me to Carolinas College was the warm and friendly environment, the awesome instructors and impressive statistics.
