Explore our recent alumni highlights from
School of Computing Science
Shayna Grose
Full-stack Developer @Pixieset
"One of the biggest ways FAS shaped my path was through mentorship and collaboration. Being a TechConnect mentor and FAS diversity ambassador showed me how much small interaction can matter. I have had students I mentored reach out years later for job referrals, and one student told me they chose computer science after attending a presentation I gave. That meant a lot to me."
School of Engineering Science
Nimrat Gill
Payload Software Systems Engineer @MDA Space
"Choosing the systems option during my studies really shaped my path. It gave me exposure to different areas of engineering instead of focusing on just onem which helped me build a more well-rounded understanding. I enjoyed the balance between thinking and building during the eight-month Capstone Project. I was able to learn more about teamwork and iteration, especially when things didn't go as planned."
School of Mechatronic Systems Engineering
Teresa Lau
Additive Design Assistant @Hodgson Orthopedic Group
"Working on projects and organizing events from the Mechatronic Systems Engineering Student Society (MSESS) taught me how to be an adaptable and proactive team member, often balancing multiple responsibilities. They also helped me to develop communication skills with different audiences. In my current role, this is especially valuable because I frequently collaborate with clinicians and other non-engineers to translate their needs into practical designs and process improvements."
School of Sustainable Energy Engineering
Kaylee Meschke
Project Engineer @Polar Engineering
"My experience in the SEE program at SFU allowed me to specialize in sustainability while building a strong interdisciplinary foundation. My Capstone project shaped my confidence the most. It was intentionally open ended, requiring our team to make technical decisions, justify them and stand behind them. Navigating team dynamics and contributing meaningfully to a complex result helped me grow not only as a problem solver, but as a collaborator and emerging leader. "
