Program: Biomedical Sciences
Year: 2
Pronouns: She/Her
Career goal: I want to be a medical researcher and hopefully also get into government health policy!
How I get involved: I got involved by following clubs on instagram and looking at the many posters around campus. Emails from SciSpace are also an awesome way to find out what is going on around campus especially since they go right to your email! Lastly, going to club events and talking to others is a great way to find new opportunities. Since they are there, they are most likely interested in some of the same things as you so you can learn about what they are also involved in too. Maybe even find things to do together!
Why I love my program
I love my program because of the focus on biology and chemistry as well as the many options for electives. The required courses are very relevant to what I want to do in the future and still offer me many options to specialize in other topics as well. It gives me a good structure to start university and find out what my interests are.
Why University of Waterloo?
I chose Waterloo for the innovative and drive of students not only in the science faculty but across the school. It is a motivating energy to be around and makes me want to strive to be better.
