Grigor Pahlevanyan

As an individual, I always love inventing new ideas, designs, and technologies that do not already exist. In addition, I am extremely passionate about robotics and working towards artificial intelligence. I find engineering extremely motivating because I can see the impact of my individual efforts and creative ideas on the satisfaction of customers. In my free time, I spend most of my time learning about different mechanisms in various engineering fields and continually brainstorming ways to improve or combine these ideas.

As a Mechatronics Engineering & CO-OP student at McMaster University, I have gained a vast amount of knowledge in the areas of Electrical, Mechanical, and Computer Engineering. This experience has allowed me to further deepen my understanding of the fundamental physical and mathematical concepts that form the basis for any engineering project. Perhaps most importantly, I have learned how to manage stress, take on more than I can handle, work efficiently, and maintain a positive environment while navigating these challenges.
