“The field course was a pivotal point in my academic journey because if not for my study abroad experience, I genuinely would not be in this lab and I wouldn’t be doing my master’s in this area of study,” says Natalie Emerick (BSc 2025).
In 2023, Emerick and 13 other University of Windsor undergraduate science students accompanied professors Dan Mennill and Stéphanie Doucet to Paris for a field study course.
