Hi 👋 I’m Amir. I’m in my 3rd in the IGEN Program. Let me know if you have any questions. Here’s my email if you have any questions after the session: contact@amirhanna.me

https://www.igen.ubc.ca/https://www.integratedengineers.ca/https://design-innovation.apsc.ubc.ca/

Can we access the workshop anytime we want once you're a part of iGEN

Can we take CPSC equivalents to make up for taking less CPEN classes?

That's great-thanks!

Thanks!

That's a cute gift

Ok cool!

I agree, I had an interview just recently at EY!

For tech consulting

I met Clarissa at Sanctuary during my internship, she's amazing!

@Amir what's your major and minor?

@Franky Major: MECH Minor: CHBE

@Frank What major or minors are you thinking of taking on ?

CPEN and MECH I think

Sweet!

Does doing a minor generally mean you have to take a 5th year to complete your degree?

One of our core courses (COMM 280) can go towards an Entrepreneurship minor! Might add 1 semester instead of 1 year, depends on the load you choose

What proportion of iGENs go to postgrad vs work after graduating?

Within in IGEN you can choose a major/minor/tertiary specialty right? But this is not the same as doing an 18 credit minor that you could do from any other program correct?

so that minor would not count towards your technical electives right?

Thank you!

how in depth are the different capstones each year?

What kind of minor/major within igen would you recommend to someone interested in financial engineering?

What kind of things are there in IGEN for data science and AI applications?

@Franky - some past student projects: https://www.igen.ubc.ca/student-projects/

Amir, how do you think you've grown the most in iGEN and what are worldviews that you had that have changed since coming into the program?

thank you!

Yes within VC! - using engineering skills to work in business/finance in the future

Is it hard to get into courses run by other programs? What happens if you have a late registration time?

Great to know, thank you!

Most welcome!

Thank you!

🔥

lol no pressure

That's great, thanks!

lol it's subjective it's fine

Thank you!

There were a lot of igeners with software-esque jobs. does that come from a cpen major or do they all have an element of software?

great, thanks!

for machine learning and that kind of stuff, what are the options?

Here’s my email: contact@amirhanna.me

If you have any questions after the session or in the future!

alright, Thank you!

Thanks for the session, have a nice evening :)
