Career goal: Canadian Air Force Pilot

How I get involved:  I participate in Faculty of Science outreach initiatives, attend University of Waterloo Aviation Society events, and am actively involved in the aviation community through flight training and student engagement opportunities.

Why I love my program 

I love my program because it combines my passion for science with my goal of becoming a professional pilot. The mix of scientific coursework, aviation training, and hands-on learning has given me a strong foundation while allowing me to apply what I learn in real-world settings. Having an Earth Science minor has also broadened my understanding of the natural world and complements my interests in aviation.

The opportunity to combine a science degree with professional flight training, along with the university's emphasis on experiential learning and student involvement, made Waterloo the ideal place to pursue my education.
