Next stop: Peru ✈️

Kassandra Chavarria Sosa graduates with her first degree in environmental science this October and is already on to her next!

As an undergraduate student in her program's applied biology stream, Chavarria Sosa pursued an honours thesis analyzing Brandt's cormorant GPS tracks under the supervision of statistical ecologist and environmental science professor Ruth Joy.

She presented her honours research and the work she was doing with her lab at both SFU’s Undergraduate Research Symposium this year, as well as at the Pacific Seabird Conference.

“These experiences led to really interesting conversations and connections with other researchers doing similar work,” she says. “It really opened my eyes to all the different avenues I can take after my studies.”

Now, the new master's student is continuing her work as a graduate student in SFU's School of Environmental Science modelling animal movement data—this time on the Peruvian coast.
