STUDENT PROFILE
Elnara Nasimi
Graduate program of study: Master of Applied
Science in Nuclear Engineering
Why I chose UOIT: I received several
recommendations for UOIT from people working
within the nuclear power production and uranium
mining industries. I was very impressed with the
approachability of the faculty and how easy it was to meet with them to
access more information about the program. I was also impressed with
the broad variety of research topics.
What I like best about my program: I like the structure of the courses at
the graduate-level as students are encouraged to participate in design
projects in direct connection with the industry. I also like how personal it
is as the classroom sizes are quite small and we get plenty of opportunities
to ask questions and participate in group discussions. The instructors
and support staff get to know students so quickly and are always so
helpful and friendly. It makes me feel at home when I come to school.

STUDENT PROFILE
Sonja Stadler
Graduate program of study: Master of Science in Applied Bioscience
Why I chose UOIT: UOIT is the only university in Canada that provides a graduate program with a focus in forensic science.
In addition, the growing research faculty and facilities provide an excellent opportunity to conduct relevant and exciting
research. The fact that UOIT is a small university with an interdisciplinary science department was an added bonus. I felt
that these features would create a close-knit community for me to become a part of.
What I like best about my program: The Applied Bioscience program incorporates both course work and completion of a
thesis. By combining these aspects I feel like I can get the most out of my Masters degree. Through the course work I learned
about ongoing research in other fields and developed skills for a career in academia, which provided a strong foundation for my research. The thesis
portion will allow me to conduct research in an area that genuinely interests me. I will develop and conduct my own research project, learning the ins
and outs of research along the way.
