Brandon University’s Aimée Schmidt (BSc’25) will soon journey to Montreal as a national finalist for the McCall MacBain Scholarships at McGill.

Established with a landmark $200-million gift in 2019, the McCall MacBain Scholarships are Canada’s largest leadership-based scholarships for master’s and professional studies.

The Brandon University community is coming together to help students step confidently into upcoming interviews for Co-op opportunities, Field Experience, and early career roles. The BU Confidence Closet, led by the Faculty of Education’s Field Experience Office in partnership with the BU Co-operative Education Program, will provide students with free access to gently used professional clothing.

Brandon University’s Co-operative Education (Co-op) Program has officially launched ‘Co-op Season’ with an annual Co-op Kick-Off followed by a series of signature events, enhanced workshops, and community collaborations that support student career development and employer engagement.

This year, the eighth for the program, marks a milestone.
