| Laura Alvey: "You actually build things." (Abriel photo) |
A competitive sailor in high school, the ocean was one of the things that drew Laura Alvey to study on the East Coast. That, and the excellent reputation of 新加坡六合彩开奖直播脮s Architecture and Planning program.
Originally from Calgary, Laura is now graduating with a Master of Architecture (First Professional) degree. She also has a Bachelor of Environmental Design Studies.
脪Architecture is very technical as a profession 脡 you actually build things, but it脮s also a very creative field as well. I like that combination. It lets you see the world in a different way.鈥�
One of the things she appreciated most about her program was the hands-on experience she received. 脪We definitely get more direct experience in the field than other schools,鈥� she says. She completed an exciting eight-month co-op term in London England, for example. She also took part in 脪free labs鈥� as part of her program. These were hands-on building studios, one of which took place in New York.
Her London experience was so successful, she plans on moving there after taking the summer off 脨 脪hopefully to sail again,鈥� she says.
