Why Digital Media?
Sahar is enthralled by the ever-expanding role that technology plays in our lives, and wants to explore how exponential changes in technology will impact us in the coming years. That’s why her Major Research Project is exploring the potential impact of Quantum Computing in Canada over the next 10+ years. In doing this program, Sahar has gained more technical skills and expanded her horizons to new areas of digital media that she had not considered before.
