“Access to the research lab and funding has expanded what this project can actually achieve. Without these resources, it would have stayed mostly theoretical. With the lab, I can build a real prototype, test how it performs and collect my own data.”

"This award helps cover the cost of co-op fees, work clothes or anything that I might need specifically for the job and allows me to continue to focus on my education. NSCC and Nova Scotia have been very generous, and the support has kept me going without the need for a part-time job, which I am super grateful for.”
