Student Life

Third-year International Food Business student Bibi Roozing was preparing for her Canadian work term when the onset of the pandemic sent her home to The Netherlands. With the help of Dal’s Faculty of Agriculture, she’s found a unique way to complete her work placement and help support rural economic development in Nova Scotia at the same time.

For master's student Hailie Tattrie, her education in sociology is about more than just classroom learning — it's about equipping her with tools to help her make an active difference in people's lives through community action.

Like many Dalhousie alumni before her, Farzana Karim made her time at Dal a family affair, earning her Master of Environmental Studies (MES) degree two years after her husband, Tahazzud Hossain.

Agnivo Rakshit had never been to a dental hygienist before he decided to become one. But that didn’t stop him from falling in love with the profession or finding that it has changed his life forever.

Supriya Patel was drawn to Dal three years ago after reading about its reputation as a research institution. As she completes her master's in Electrical and Computer Engineering this spring, she did so having also made a lasting impact as a student assistant at Dalhousie Libraries.
