Every year, ERSA hosts a Research Showcase giving 2nd year Master’s of Science in Ecological Restoration students a chance to showcase their Applied Research Projects. This event also gives students in all cohorts an opportunity to connect with existing and potential project partners within the lower mainland of BC. This year’s Research Showcase will consist of a poster day, hosted at the BCIT campus in Burnaby. The event will take place from 10am – 3pm on Monday February 3, 2020, in BCIT SE02 Townsquare A&B. Please contact us at erstudentassociation@gmail.com if you are interested in attending.
