I got the opportunity to connect with industry leaders and learn beyond the scope of what is taught in the classroom
"The Fusion Conference was a great experience that I highly recommend to students looking to learn about new and emerging opportunities in STEM. I got the opportunity to connect with industry leaders and learn beyond the scope of what is taught in the classroom. All in all, I would say that it was a great event that I am looking forward to participating in next year!"

“My experience at the Fusion conference allowed me to have conversations with industry leaders in Biotechnology from Roche, J&J, Avro Life Sciences, and GE Healthcare. My team and I tested our true potentials by having a short amount of time to build a case, pool and identify our capabilities collected through our experiences and SCBUS lectures. The Fusion experience was filled with nerves, laughter, and amazing memories that my team and I cherish today.”

“Participating in the 2020 Fusion case competition, focusing on innovation and sustainability, was a great opportunity for me to hone my critical thinking and team- working skills. I had the opportunity to work with a multi-talented and enthusiastic group, which made problem-solving even more fun. Constructing an analytical framework, within a short time period that encapsulated our chosen company’s sustainability strategy, was a great learning experience.”

“I really enjoyed the diverse background of speakers. It was great learning about innovations in industry, academia and activist spaces. Getting the chance to connect in smaller groups was another way I gained insight and resources.”

“Fusion is a great way for students to simulate real world presentations outside of the classroom setting. It actively promotes exercising skills such as collaboration and time-management all while being efficient.”
Souhail Aboulhoda
“I enjoyed attending Fusion because of all the people I got to meet, and the case study that I got to be a part of. It was very intellectually stimulating and engaging, and I learned a lot about innovative approaches to sustainability. I found the case competition to be a nice fusion of science and business. I have not participated in a Fusion conference before, so taking part in coming up with a solution to our hypothetical scenario taught me about how science and business can be further explored in daily life.”
