What can a graduate degree do for you?
Join our engineering departments from November 2-4, 2021 as they host Ask me Anything events for graduate programs.
If you are considering a graduate degree, this is a great opportunity to:
As a society we have reached an inflection point where disparities in technology adoption rate by age group, amid the pandemic, and technological innovations are altering the landscape of the healthcare, creating both opportunities and challenges for improving healthy aging. Today, a person can expect to live an average of 22 years longer than people who were alive 70 years ago. There is evidence of the accelerated diffusion of technologies; however, data show consistent disparities in adoption rates.

This year's Distinguished Lecture Series kicks off with a lecture by Raquel Urtasun who is a pioneer in autonomous driving systems, and a Professor of CS at the University of Toronto. Raquel now leads a self-driving startup
Successful development of technology--and training of technology innovators and researchers--is challenging and inherently interdisciplinary. This is especially true when designing for user populations that are younger, older, or are living with impairments and disabilities.
