Are you a university student interested in communication, collaboration networks and open source communities? Are you looking for a chance to win $500? Then WICI has a challenge for you!

In conjunction with John McLevey’s talk, WICI is hosting its first challenge of the 2014-2015 year.

Each year WICI hosts a Speakers Series that brings distinguished guests to University of Waterloo to present on topics of their choice relevant to complexity science. The series also offers local scholars and WICI members an opportunity to share their work with the university’s faculty and students, and the local community.

This year’s WICI Speaker Series will feature talks by Sander van der Leeuw, Jack Goldstone, Hans De Sterck, John McLevely, and Derek Robinson, as well as a Bridges Lecture being delivered by WICI member Sarah Tolmie and WICI director Dawn Parker.

WICI is hiring an information technician to support the WICI website, advance WICI’s suite of software and hardware tools, and provide general technical support.

For more information, please visit our Employment page.

SSHRC funding has been granted to new research projects involving WICI core members Dawn Parker and Steven Quilley.

Parker, WICI director and professor with University of Waterloo's School of Planning, will be working with Jeff Casello and Markus Moos to examine the pending development of light rail transit in Kitchener-Waterloo, and its affect on core-area intensification and socio-economic change.
