Posted: Fri, 25th Feb 2005 17:05 Post subject: What school do/did you go to? |
|
 |
Since we're all getting to know each other with these picture and car threads, and because so many of us seem to be students (or at least have gone on to post-secondary education) ...
... Where do (or did) you guys go to school? And what do/did you take?
I'll get it started:
I go to the University of Western Ontario in London, Ontario, Canada. I did my BSc in Health Sciences, and I'm currently about 6 months away from finishing my MSc in Population Epidemiology.
Quote: | "Founded in 1878 by Bishop Isaac Hellmuth and the Anglican Diocese of Huron as "The Western University of London Ontario," Western is one of Canada’s oldest and best universities. The first students graduated in arts and medicine in 1883.
Today, The University of Western Ontario is a vibrant centre of learning with 1,164 faculty members and almost 29,000 undergraduate and graduate students. Through its 12 Faculties and Schools, and three affiliated Colleges, the University offers more than 60 different degree and diploma programs.
The University is located on 155 hectares of land along the banks of the Thames River in London, Ontario - a thriving city of 432,451 people, 200 kilometres west of Toronto" |

I'm currently doing an industry placement at a computer corporation; also studying for my BSc in Cybernetics and Virtual Worlds (4th year).
I also have a CCNA and am a certified Web developer (although I just failed my recertification which could leave the companies websites looking a little bair for a few weeks as Im the only guy able to do most of the work haha)..
I havent decided if I will finish my studies yet, I may just stay on at the company.

I never understood the university system in USA/Canada, you guys go there to study 2 h/week or so and 50% of the students only plays Basket/baseball :s. And at unis you can study anything you want to from physics to designer to fashion to hair stylist..
I go to university here and im doing 'biological engineering' studies in Ghent, belgium. And it appears to me that those studies don't exist over the sea. Or am i wrong?

err ... we don't give sports scholarships out in Canada ... all of our good athletes go south to American schools. You get your share of meatheads in any school though. Some play sports... some drink every night and only last a year. And yes, there are many many biotechnology programs over here!

I didn't go to college, but I run my own computer/communications business.
I was in the right place at the right time.
