Welcome

My name is Carter Kowel and I am a 2024 UBC engineering physics student grad. I am currently working as an HMI Designer at Brock Solutions.

Education (What Is Engineering Physics?)

In short, it is a fully accredited engineering program that is a combination of the real-world applications of engineering with the analytical rigor of physics and math. Engineering physics students enroll in ELEC, CPEN, MECH, MATH, and PHYS classes and gain the fundamentals to take on multidisciplinary problem solving.

Personal Projects

I have found that projects are a fun way to reinforce my learning by applying theory and knowledge towards real solutions. In addition, I enjoy being able to build a solution to a problem from the ground up, fully understanding the responsibilities and intricacies of every component.
