Small Class Sizes with Award Winning Faculty

It makes a huge difference. There are approximately 25 students in the ESST program each year. Compare that with other places and you will realize you are getting personalized learning where you are an individual, not a number. Full-time faculty teach all core courses and most electives.

You get to know and learn from them.

There are opportunities for honours projects, independent studies and 4th year projects that one doesn't find at bigger programs in bigger universities. There is not a graduate program here... undergraduates are front and centre.
