Simon Ferguson on being awarded the Wesbrook and Premier Undergraduate Scholarship

I commenced my involvement at UBC as a Residence Advisor building community in Totem Park and I continue to do so now in the Marine Drive Residences.
I participated in a Reading Week project as a Community Learning Facilitator leading a group of volunteers at Hastings Elementary with the Trek program.
This year, I directed the Communications and Promotions portfolios for the student-led committee that planned the 2014 UBC Student Leadership Conference.
I am currently completing a dual degree in Applied Science and Arts, studying Engineering Physics and French.
I’ve taken part in various research opportunities, including the Nuclear Medicine division at TRIUMF, and I am coordinating a Student Directed Seminar in French Creative Writing.
I will be pursuing a Master’s degree in Medical Physics at the University of Alberta in the fall.
