This spring convocation, two female students are receiving their diplomas from the new and challenging Physics and Electrical Engineering joint program at the University of Ottawa. One of the graduates of the five-year honours bachelor is Amina Berrada, who left the region of Maghreb in North Africa for this program. Not only does Amina represent half of those graduating from this program, but also she is among the first women to do so. Excelling in a typically male dominated field, Amina’s path is unique and one of perseverance.
