Choosing what to study (and where!) after high school can feel overwhelming. Bring your questions to this session with Dr. Mike Smit, Dean, Faculty of Management, Dalhousie University, and get honest and practical advice that will help you cut through the noise to find the program and place for you. A computer scientist who left his family’s dairy farm in rural Nova Scotia to do ocean, climate, and health research in the Faculty of Management, and program director for the Shad Dalhousie summer program from 2013 to 2023, Dr. Smit has a long history of helping students find their path at universities all over the world. He’ll explore what really matters to you, from your interests and goals to campus culture and career opportunities, so you can make confident, informed decisions about your future.
