If i remember, i'll try to get some info from him this weekend. PM me to remind me.
Thanks El-Richo. Even some company names would be useful at this stage, so I can get a feel for the lay of the land. I'll send you a PM later tonight and again in the morning to "remind" ya

A Ph.D requires you make discoveries in your field of study, and after 5 years of studying I'll be ready to just crack on with some work I think, but I'll take a look into it Greenhill, thanks.

Masters Degrees in multiple disciplines are not unknown. The advantages of leveraging the contacts you make as a student here through networking shouldnt be underestimated in the canadian job market.

About 15 years ago I had a job interview in Plymouth (UK) for a Canadian company thinking of opening an office in the UK. They were called Dynovation and were a robotics company based near Niagara Falls. I didn't hear from them again and I don't think they trade under that name now but if you do some web searches you may track them down. Good Luck.
