By learning as much as you can about your peers, your world and yourself, you will enrich your Ryerson experience and your life.
"My first year of engineering at Ryerson University was very memorable with loads of challenges and successes. Transitioning from high school was tough but with the help of the First-Year Engineering Office, I learned how to prioritize my various academic responsibilities, and even found time to join in on some extracurricular activities. I feel totally prepared for my second year!"

“I always encourage students to get involved in the extracurricular and professional development opportunities that FEAS has to offer. In my second year, I was an Architecture Course Union representative and I led a project for the Luminato festival. Those experiences in leadership have definitely shaped who I have become, both as a person and a professional.”

"The engineering programs host many networking events between students and industry professionals. The closer I get to graduation, the more I see the importance of taking advantage of these opportunities. Now I make a point of attending all relevant events so that I can strengthen my professional and personal connections."

"I’m really enjoying extracurriculars this year. As the co-director of logistics for the IEEE Computer Society Ryerson Chapter, I've had the opportunity to organize workshops on everything from resumé critiques to cloud computing. I also discovered my passion for medical technology innovation through the Biomedical Zone's co-development lab program, and I'm grateful to be continuing in this direction with my current internship at MedChart Inc."

"In the industrial engineering program, I’ve found a healthy school-life balance. The willingness of my professors to provide guidance goes beyond what I could have expected. As a result, I am graduating with a full-time engineering job already secured in the project management office at Thales Transportation Solutions Canada, and an enriching academic experience under my belt."
