I’ve been offered spots at SFU’s masters resource management (for which I will apply to planning stream ) and to Waterloo MA Planning.
considerations:
- I am interested a diversity of social justice issues, including public health equity and Indigenous rights. I’ve focused a bit already on how environmental policy intersects with health and treaty rights
- I have a background in community engagement and social sciences, I think I’m more interested in the social side of things
-I want to eventually be back home in BC (been in ON for 5 years)
- I’might want to go on to do a PhD, I like research but want also a professional perspective
- supervisor at Waterloo has a health focus; supervisor at SFU is planner in environmental impact assessment and has experience in working with co-management
- costs may be better at sfu because I can live with my parents
What I’m hoping to know:
- people’s experience and interests in the mrm program
- outcomes of people working in environmental policy
- general opinions on my situation.
Very anxious about this decision because it means very different things for my future and don’t know which is better. Appreciate any insight!!
