Teri Terrace Teri studied at the Roseworthy Campus of the University of Adelaide, completing firstly an Associate Diploma in Agricultural Production and then a Bachelor of Applied Science (Agriculture), which she completed in 1987. "Roseworthy was a great campus to study on and the experience I gained there has been useful throughout my subsequent career"Teri worked for the State Department of Agriculture and then began working as a Technical Assistant at CSIRO in Adelaide on the control of soil-borne plant root diseases of wheat. Teri is now a Technical Officer based in Townsville, Queensland. "My career has been interesting and fulfilling. I have developed a new method for assessing damage to the roots of plants by the disease Rhizoctonia. I have also undertaken independent research on the biology of terrestrial planarians, and now work on a project which aims to develop cashew nut production in Australia."I have enjoyed the varied nature of my work, and being in CSIRO has allowed me the scope to develop professionally. None of this would have been possible without the education I received at Roseworthy. |
