We want to make sure that you have the experience necessary for success both during and after your time at Ontario Tech University. This conference is the answer to all of your post-BSc questions, and much MORE. Sit back, relax, and learn about the common and uncommon careers that can evolve from an education in Science. Learn from a politician, representatives of UofT Pharmacy, among many other experts who took their BSc’s and translated them into the domains of politics, medicine, pharmacy, advocacy, research, among many others. Who knows? You just might discover your hidden passion!
