When Robert Chen arrived at SFU in 1998 to pursue his MA degree in economics, he only had $100 in his pocket, the clothes on his back, and one piece of luggage. Although it was his first time venturing outside of his home country, he quickly found a second home at SFU Economics.

After years of training, persistence, hard work, and many late nights, Kristen Tsai, Simon Fraser University’s School of Criminology alumnus, proudly represented Canada at the Tokyo Summer Olympic Games.

Inspired by his life-affirming experience as a master's student at SFU Economics, Shiva Nanda and his wife Elizabeth are committing over $600K to establish an endowment supporting incoming graduate students.

Arshpreet Dhillon, who convocated in June 2021, believes her involvement in the community paired with her curiosity and willingness to ask questions, created a pleasant and successful undergraduate career for her at SFU.
