Research experience depends on the team and the topic that each person works on. I have worked with a very professional and hard working team and both my Advisor and Concordia University has helped me financially and professionally through my career.

Spoke to a large group of students who were in conditional standing at the university due to their low grades. Informed them of the services available to assist them. The hardest part of this was when a few students did not know what program they were registered in, as it was their parents who had completed the registration. The most enjoyable part – more... was being able to reach out to both the student and the parents, and letting the student express what area of studies they were really interested in. – less

2 - A lot of information about smart grid and cloud computing.

3 - My Professor was great.

4 - The team was great.

5 - New and Complicated Topics.

6 - Preparing my first Journal.

With the welcoming staff I learned others approaches to teaching and enjoyed each and everyone's intake.

This teaching experience has not only provided a more in-depth perspective of the economic statistics subject, but also sharpened my presentation and communication skills, and taught me how to inspire an audience and get everyone interested and involved in the subject.

Doing research on composite materials and nanostructures

It's a bad work place for the staff, people who wants to make a change were pressed down. Things cannot be improved because of poor management.

It's a bad place for the students to study as well. Coming from UBC, Concordia is lack of confident and qualified personnel to run the place. The university spends a small fraction of the funding to improve – more... the quality of student life. Most of the money were wasted on things like paying for lawsuits - even the government realized that Concordia has been paying too much severances. – less

teacher assistance for mechanical design.
stress analysis and working with matlab software

working as a invigilator is always a challenging role and i always loved to play my part. and working oncampus in concordia university is always a help for an international student with money as well as exposure to the industry.

I'm learning and enhancing my knowledge in the same time. I'm teaching two undergraduate courses which is very exciting for me.

This was an excellent introduction to the world of financial accounting for a large organization.

I got to see how all the aspects of the university came together from a financial standpoint.

It is a part time job at school because i was still a full time student who was not able to work all day. Most of the time i worked with professors on some academic projects and some other related jobs. My working time was very flexible but sometimes very intensive.
