Astrid Christoffersen-Deb is one of two Quebecers en route to Oxford University

成人VR视频 medical student Astrid-Christoffersen-Deb has just been named the University鈥檚 latest Rhodes Scholar. A Montreal-West resident, Christoffersen-Deb intends to study politics, philosophy and economics at Oxford University in 2001, upon graduating from 成人VR视频 next June.

Christoffersen-Deb says her Rhodes Scholarship will be the perfect preparation for her ultimate career goal: to work as a doctor in developing countries. "Studying in philosophy, politics and economics will provide me with the foundation I聮ll need to help build societies and advocate for others," she says, adding her Rhodes-sharpened skills could even assist in securing future employment with humanitarian groups including M茅decins Sans Fronti猫res or UNICEF. "I expect being a Rhodes Scholar will be like starting a new life."

  • I>dmissions committee member for 成人VR视频鈥檚 Faculty of Medicine.

  • Christofferson-Deb is the recipient of the YMCA Young Woman of Distinction Award (Year 2000).
