Student Testimonial

"I joined MEERL because I wanted to undertake a master's degree in a different area of my expertise, that would complement my technical skills. It is a demanding program and it took me way out of my comfort zone, which I am very grateful for. I feel fortunate to have belonged to a diverse cohort of students. It was a very enriching experience. Everyone, please take the field trip course, you will not regret it!"
