Group Projects

Students participating in the summer program will be working in groups on problem-solving projects. Groups will be formed at the start of the summer school. Each group will consist of 5-6 participants with a mixture of Canadian and international students. Towards the end of the program, each group will give a 30 minutes presentation of their project.

Group projects are designed to provide students with hands-on experience of collaborative learning and problem-solving, and an opportunity for culture exchange.
