Laura - Chemistry

Science Ambassador
Laura

Program: Honours Chemistry, Philosophy Minor

Year: 3                       

Stream of study: Co-op

Pronouns: She/Her/Hers 

Career goal: I want to do R&D (Research and Design) for Drug Development!

How I get involved: I've recently become involved with a lot more clubs and opportunities during my first co-op term working at the SUO! I worked with an amazing team who made me want to participate more with the Faculty and have a lasting impact on everyone who is new to UWaterloo! I am an exec with the Women in STEM club (WiSTEM), I am a Coordinator for Science Society (SciSoc) and in past years I've played on the UW Ultimate team. All of these things have made me a better, more well rounded student.

Why I love my program

I LOVE the labs! My favourite semester so far was when I had 3 labs in one term. Even though it was tough, I found myself working harder and applying the knowledge I'd learned in lecture to the labs. Nothing beats practical experience. Plus the profs are pretty cool ;)

Why University of Waterloo?

The first time I toured UW, it felt like home. And every time since that I have come back, it continues to be my home. These are my people and this is my place. I want to show the incoming classes how I see UW and all it has to offer!
