WATCH PROGRAM VIDEO<br />
“I have learned so much at Centennial College — more than I could<br />
have ever imagined. I used to discuss all the projects and<br />
assignments with my father, and he was very glad that I made the<br />
right decision. Back in India, students are only given theoretical<br />
knowledge and no real hands-on experience. But at Centennial<br />
College, I got real insight into food science. I liked all the projects that we<br />
did in this program. But my personal favourites were the Food Science project,<br />
the Food Seminar lectures, and field trips. It will read [My time] at Centennial<br />
College at Centennial College have shaped me into a better person. I thank all the<br />
Centennial College professors for their efforts and precious guidance.”<br />
