MSc Earth & Space Science Student
“The Lassonde School of Engineering and the Earth and Space Science and Engineering department were very encouraging and supportive of all students gaining a range of hands-on research experience.
They offered amazing opportunities every year to take part in funded research for students like me to expand their skill set and learn how to effectively communicate.
In my case, I loved what I was working on so much that I continued onto graduate studies and worked in the same lab for over 5 years!”
