WA @ UW
UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO – FACULTY OF ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES
I completed my Bachelor of Environmental Studies degree in Geography
(specialization in Urban, Economic and Community Development, a minor in Psychology, and a Co-op designation)
at the end of April 2003 and graduated in mid-June.
So now, I am officially Wesley J.H. Andreas, BES (all that work for 3 letters!)
During the spring/summer term, I worked for UW as the interim/assistant project manager for the CURA project
… and continued my studies as a non-degree/post-degree student, completing two undergrad history courses.
At the beginning of September, I relocated to Calgary, Alberta to start a Master of Arts degree in
Geography at the University of Calgary. Click here for more details…

Special thanks to Dr. T. Bunting, my undergrad thesis advisor, and all the staff, faculty and students at UW's
