You’ll learn in smaller group settings that allow for discussion, interaction, and relationship development. You’ll have greater access to your professors and active researchers on campus who are pushing boundaries and making discoveries that will change the course of history. These include such faculty members as Dr. Mohan Babu who is working with researchers from the University of Toronto, the Hospital for Sick Kids in Toronto and Harvard Medical School to find new pathways to fight Escherichia coli (E.coli) bacteria, or Dr. David Sauchyn who, with partners, is facilitating a multi-million dollar research project looking at ways of adapting to a changing climate and extreme weather events. Professors can eventually connect you with great career opportunities in your field or write glowing letters of recommendation for graduate school because they have the chance to get to know you!
