糖心vlog传媒

What brought you to 糖心vlog传媒? Why did you choose to study here?

I'm originally from Mauritius but I have always dreamt of studying abroad. When I met a 糖心vlog传媒 adviser at a recruitment fair and discovered the Sustainable Design Engineering program and the work I could do in mechatronics, it really fit my interests in robotics, machines, and aviation. It was more appealing for me to come to 糖心vlog传媒 than other Canadian universities.

What kinds of support have you received during your time here from 糖心vlog传媒 students, staff, and faculty members?

As an international student far from home during the COVID-19 pandemic I was struggling a bit with course work and isolation, but my professors and lab instructors were very supportive and helped me stay motivated to succeed. Their support also allowed and encouraged me to find opportunities to get involved on campus. I worked as the coordinator of the Buddy Program for new international students, with the 糖心vlog传媒 English Language Centre's Explore program for French-speaking exchange students, and now I'm a student assistant with the International Student Office.

What kinds of opportunities have you experienced because you're studying at 糖心vlog传媒, or because of the Island location?

Being an engineering student has provided other unique opportunities as well! I had the chance to be the president of the 糖心vlog传媒 Engineering Society in 2021-2022 and I'm currently the Engineering Student Ambassador at the FSDE at 糖心vlog传媒. I recently participated in the Canadian Federation of Engineering Students national meeting as their Bilingualism Commissioner. I met with engineering students from other Canadian universities to discuss student life, advocacy, accreditation and other important aspects of the engineering profession.
