The School of Accounting and Finance caught up with Laura, a current Equestrian Club member and Master of Accounting (MAcc) student to learn more about the Equestrian Club and its impact.

How Zero Work set me on the path for future success

Looking to prepare for your first co-op experience? Zero Work is an asset you don’t want to miss out on!

My name is Rachel and I am a first-year Accounting and Financial Management (AFM) student. I stumbled upon Zero Work in my first term, and now I’m here to spread the word about my incredible experience!

This January, a team composed of four undergraduate students in Accounting and Financial Management, Engineering, and Planning competed in the eighth edition of the annual Ryerson Real Estate Expand Your Empire (EYE) Case Competition, where their financially feasible and sustainable design won both the first place grand prize and the Most Feasible Design award for a total cash prize of $11,500.
