UBC Vancouver Summer Program – Student’s Experience

Long Kiu Tsang

Biological Sciences Major, Year 3, 2024

One of the most valuable aspects of the VSP was the opportunity to meet and interact with people from all over the world. The program attracted students from diverse cultural backgrounds, allowing me to expand my global perspective. I relished the chance to learn about different customs, traditions, and ways of life directly from my peers. Sharing meals, participating in group projects, and simply having conversations allowed me to break down stereotypes and appreciate the richness of human diversity.

In conclusion, my experience with the Vancouver Summer Program was truly transformative. From the engaging learning opportunities to the personal growth and global awareness I gained, this program has left an indelible mark on my life. I am grateful for the chance to participate and know that the lessons and memories I've taken away will continue to shape my future.
