Current undergraduate students

Please join us to learn about opportunities for research at the Canadian Light Source from Dr. Ning Chen, Canadian Light Source’s Senior Staff Scientist, Beamline Responsible.

Have you ever wanted to join a hackathon, but thought it was only for coders? Well, Hack the Plastics wants you! Hack the Plastics is a broad skilled hackathon that does not require a coding based final product and will happen from 28th Feb – 1st March, 2020 at the University of Waterloo. You will be tackling ways to fight single use plastic pollution using microbes and producing a technical solution, business plan, and pitch.

Women in Engineering is hosting a fun afternoon mixer where female students and female faculty can connect and get inspired over light snacks and refreshments in a casual, stress- free environment.

You are invited to attend Mina Rafieishishavan's PhD defense, where she will discuss a practical and systematic method for integrating design and control that she has applied to medium-scale and large-scale applications.

Please join us to hear Dr. Denis Yu from the School of Energy and Environment at City University of Hong Kong speak about a new metal-metal battery that is free from complex material synthesis processes and can turn cheap and abundant metals into potential high-voltage batteries.
