STUDENT PROFILE “I chose the Electrical Engineering program because of the great reputation of Lakehead University and Georgian College. The dual-credential program is oneof-a-kind and is backed by local, national and international industry connections. I may have been nervous heading into my first year at Lakehead-Georgian, but the small class sizes and high studentinstructor interaction made it so much easier. We are a tight-knit community and that has made it so much easier to succeed.”

STUDENT PROFILE “I was looking for a place where I could learn practically more than theoretically. It has the best parts of both college and university. The college has a good balance with theory/ practice that I like and I have the chance to take co-op, which gives me working experience before graduating. With university, I can expand my knowledge in computer science that the market demands.”
