Cayla writes about her passion for sustainability and why she chose to study at the University of Waterloo.
As part of the Winter 2024 AFM334 International Study Course, the class has been hard at work preparing for our trip to Zurich and Geneva at the end of April.
The International Study Course is offered to upper-year students and enables them to meet with companies and business professionals abroad, helping them to learn more about the global business landscape and further enhance the knowledge they gain in the classroom.

Zachary, Elsa, Delaney, and Hemadri, a team of AFM students, recently competed in the final round of the National Investment Banking Competition. Their weekend in Vancouver included exploration of the Waterfront, a tour of the Scotiabank office, and a pitch to judges.
Since I moved from Hong Kong at fourteen years old, finding “home” in a new country was a scary thing. With time and new experiences, I have learned to be independent, gained intercultural skills, and developed curiosity for the people and things around me. Starting university at Waterloo was a learning curve too (with co-op as well).
