How I get involved: I get involved at Waterloo by participating in activities within science community as a whole, as well as my individual program. Showing up, attending events, volunteering, meeting peers and connecting with them are all great ways that help me get started.
Why I love my program
I love my program because I get to learn something new and apply it at the same time while flying. It creates a good balance, where I get to enjoy both my science courses and flight training. One day I could be in a chemistry lab making something new, and the next day I get to fly and learn a new skill. The mix of science and flight training keeps every day different and unique.
Why University of Waterloo?
I chose Waterloo because of the flexibility my program provides. I get to choose which science courses I want to focus on while completing flight training at my own pace. Since every student can customize their degree and get involved in different ways, no two experiences look exactly the same. That flexibility is a big reason why I chose Waterloo; it lets me pursue both of my passions.
