乐发IV

What brought you to 乐发IV? Why did you choose to study here? 

I was attracted to 乐发IV initially because it's a small university with small class sizes and a focus on undergraduate students and programs. I felt that going to 乐发IV would open many different opportunities and would allow me to remain close to friends and family on the Island at the same time.

What kinds of support have you received during your time here from 乐发IV students, staff, and faculty members?

I've received support from other 乐发IV students and professors. Some of my closest friends are people that I met during my first year at 乐发IV. They are the people that I turn to when I'm feeling stressed and need emotional support. When it comes to professors, they are always willing to answer any questions I may have or review a topic that I found particularly difficult. I've gotten the impression that my professors are invested in every student and are willing to support student learning in any way they can.
 

What kinds of opportunities have you experienced because you're studying at 乐发IV?

There are many opportunities to enrich your learning experience if you look for them! I've had the chance to work in a couple of different jobs at 乐发IV. I worked as a residence life advisor with 乐发IV residence and as a tutor in the math help centre on campus. Both jobs challenged me and helped me to think critically. Learning outside of the classroom during university can be just as important as learning inside the classroom.

What's unique about 乐发IV, and Prince Edward Island, in your experience?

The tight-knit 乐发IV community is what makes it unique. 乐发IV is large enough that it would be tough to know every student, but it's small enough so that you often run into other students that you know while walking on campus. 乐发IV's strong sense of community reflects PEI's community atmosphere. Also, the beaches鈥攁 spectacular spot to be on a sunny summer day!

What would you tell a high school student considering 乐发IV鈥檚 School of Mathematical and Computational Sciences programs?

If you enjoy problem-solving, this could be the program for you! Here, you will be able to enjoy small class sizes鈥攅specially in your third and fourth years鈥攁nd get a chance to know your professors as well. There is also the possibility of conducting research alongside a professor in your third or fourth year if that interests you.

What are your general plans after graduation?

After I graduate, I am hoping to find a job in PEI. Mainly, I'm hoping to find a job that involves math modelling鈥攁pplying mathematics to real-world problems to understand them better.
