How my Research will Improve Life… 

My research was in dairy cow stall design which is working to improve animal welfare, a major area of interest in the agricultural industry.

Why I Chose Guelph… 

I did my undergrad at the University of Guelph, and after getting to know a few professors through my fourth year undergrad research project, I knew I wanted to pursue a Masters here. The Ontario Agricultural College at the University of Guelph has a strong history of research and continues to be an innovator in agricultural research. Another factor in my decision was the opportunity to conduct research in a practical setting. 

About My Advisor… 

I had an excellent academic relationship with my advisor. We met regularly to discuss my progress and any challenges I was facing in my research. He encouraged me to look at problems from various angles and identify practical solutions. I learned so much from my advisor and gained valuable exposure to the industry. 

About the City of Guelph… 

The City of Guelph is a charming and welcoming city. The people are friendly and the university is very much integrated within the community. There are many walking/running trails and the city has a variety of great restaurants. 

About Campus… 

The food is amazing, everyone is friendly, and the campus is stunning throughout all seasons.
