Honours Bachelor of Science (Physics) / Concurrent Education
Burlington

Originally from Burlington, Ontario (located in the GTA) I came to Lakehead for the experience, change in lifestyle/environment, and for the staff and reputation of both the Physics and Education departments. I enjoyed studying at the Thunder Bay campus and living in what I would consider a small city that still boasts nearly all of the amenities of city life with the natural world at your fingertips such as hunting, fishing, pond hockey, hiking, and camping.

Markham, ON

I originally studied at George Brown College and chose to transfer to Lakehead University because it gave me the flexibility to complete my degree in two years after receiving my Advanced Diploma. I struggled in my first year here and ran into academic challenges. It was at this time that I met Dr. Birbal Singh who reassured me and helped me regain a focus for my studies.

Honours Bachelor of Commerce
Peawanuck, ON

I chose Lakehead because of the success rate of Business graduates in the workplace. I know that with a business degree, it will help me help others and make a difference with other Aboriginal people from home or all over Ontario.

Two of the things that stick out to me about Lakehead are the small class sizes and open door policy that professors have here. Having those options to meet with professors helped me to improve more academically throughout the school year and years to come when professors remember you.

Medicine, Honours Bachelor of Science in Psychology
Thunder Bay, ON

Living and studying in northern Ontario allows me to continue to take part in outdoor activities (like competing with the Nordic Ski Team) while studying at a university with a small-school advantage. This has given me a place to grow, build my confidence and access supports if I need them.

Honours Bachelor of Music
Thunder Bay, ON

I chose to pursue music in University, as music has always been a huge part of my life. After doing weeks of research on prospective universities, I realized the right one was right under my nose all along. Lakehead offers a very friendly and welcoming music program with quality and incredibly dedicated instructors. Small class sizes in music allow you to have one-on-one interactions with your professors. Every single instructor is willing to help and push you to succeed in whatever way possible for you.

Honours Bachelor of Outdoor Recreation (Parks & Tourism)
East Gwillimbury, ON

I chose to come to Lakehead for the Outdoor Recreation, Parks, and Tourism program and for the beautiful Thunder Bay campus. This program is absolutely fantastic and unlike any other. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here in ORPT and have learned more than I could have imagined. ORPT has a great sense of community. Students of all year levels and professors not only know you by name, but also, are willing to take the time to know you as a person.
