“When I attended Open House in 2023, I was there as a prospective student. Now, I get to be part of the team that helps create that same experience for others. It’s rewarding to think that I can make someone feel as welcomed and excited about TRU as I did when I first attended.” — Dami Olubunmi-Ogunode

“It feels quite awesome! Being the person giving tours and making those connections with folks feels like a full-circle moment. I work towards being as amazing and welcoming as the people I met at Open House.” — Abigail Welp-Ellis

As a dual-sector research university, TRU is putting building materials and construction methods to the test in a new burn unit. The research will help bring practical, fire-resilient building lessons into trades classrooms.

“This testing lets us make informed choices instead of guessing — and it’s always better when those choices are backed by research.” says Amie Schellenberg, co-chair of TRU’s School of Trades and Technology.
