Graduate Spotlight: Maegan neve
Improved critical thinking and communication skills are what Maegan Neve said she will take with her as she graduates from Durham College (DC) with a General Arts and Science (GAS) certificate.
Neve completed the General Arts and Science – Trent Transfer program and is set to study biology at Trent University in the fall with advanced standing thanks to DC’s pathway opportunities.
“Throughout my time in the GAS program I have had the pleasure of meeting and learning from my amazing peers and supportive professor,” she said. “I came into this program to learn the critical thinking and communication skills that will help me to succeed in my university studies. It has been a pleasure working with my professors to develop these lifelong skills.”
What are your future goals?
I will be attending Trent for Biology with a specialization in conservation biology in fall 2024. I hope to go on to get a degree in Biology and potentially a master’s degree.
How did DC help prepare you for your career?
DC has helped me to develop the skills I will need to succeed in my university studies and has helped me to direct my interests into a career pathway.
What would you say to someone who’s thinking about taking the same program as you?
I would highly encourage the GAS program as it helps to prepare students for future education no matter what stream they choose. It helps to introduce several areas of studies that may help students to find out where they want to end up.
What do you love most about DC?
The thing I love most about DC is the friendly and supportive professors. All of my professors have made our classes a great experience and have taught me so much!
