"An opportunity like this never would have come available to me if I had not taken the program in the Sault College/LSSU International Division," Hornblower said. "My employer was very impressed with the fact that I not only had a degree in computer networking, but the hands-on knowledge, as well. This is the main reason that I was hired."

Tops in Competition

Graduates from our programs have found career opportunities in software development, network administration, systems analysis, data base management, and a variety of other related areas in corporate, government, and educational settings. Many have gone on to pursue advanced study leading to Master’s and Doctoral degrees in graduate programs, both nationally and internationally.

Competing as a team of 1 against teams of 3 student programmers, Lake Superior State University student Paul Carley of Sault Ste. Marie took third place at the eighth annual Northern Michigan University Programming Contest.

Carley, and 15 other LSSU students competed in the contest with four other universities and 24 teams total.

"We had 16 LSSU students that wanted to compete this year, so I made five teams of three and just put Paul on a team by himself," said Mark Terwilliger, Computer Science Professor, ."For him to finish third is a remarkable effort."

What made Rachel's Lake Superior State experience so unique was the practical research she did with top-notch faculty. "I really enjoyed working with environmental chemistry professor Judy Westrick and biologist Deb Stai," Rachel says. "For my senior project, we evaluated a lab method for cultivating a fungus that causes infections in humans." [ more ]
