Message from the Dean

Convocation season is always a highlight for me, witnessing our students mark the successful completion of years of dedicated study and celebrate their hard-earned achievements. I wish you the best as you continue your life-long journey of growing and learning, taking your newfound skills and sharing them with the world. Lean on your classmates and support systems in challenging times, and always remember that your contributions to agriculture, life and environmental studies matter.

ALES will always be your home and I look forward to welcoming you back and hearing of your ongoing success. Congratulations to the newest class of ALES graduates!
