Hey everyone! Reading week may (unfortunately) be over, but we have an insightful read to get you back on track. Back in January, we spoke with Dr. Noyan over Zoom about his experiences in academia and teaching methods. To know more about how your professors think and their outlook on various topics, read the full interview here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/14i4tV5qcvjN0G0SjwOFUCFex-A4bE3HB/view?usp=sharing

Dr. Noyan instructs BLG601 (Physiology) for second year students and BLG701 (Anatomy) for third years. These courses are relevant to our knowledge as BME students, and are direct prerequisites for multiple third and fourth year courses.

Transitioning out of student life can be challenging! The Ryerson Career and Co-op Centre is here to help you navigate the new working world through a 4-part weekly webinar series:

1. The Transition Mindset
2. Gain Trust and Build Relationships at Work
