Degrees:

2019
Master     Astronomy, Space and Earth Sciences
Here, I look at the detection of new gamma-ray blazars from multifrequency-selected candidates. In this kind of study, I use data from Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) which I analyse using Fermi science tools. I also use archival data which contains data from radio - gamma-rays for different surveys.
2017
Undergraduate     Physics
During undertaking this degree, I did the core courses of physics and did a project in the last year along side the course work. The project was about the effect of St. Patrick's geomagnetic storms in Mbarara, Uganda.
2025
Doctorate     Astronomy, Space and Earth Sciences
