Current undergraduate students

Event/initiative description: Join Nadine Ibrahim, the Turkstra Chair in Urban Engineering, and Kam Mofid (BASc '91 Electrical Engineering) at the November Turkstra Talks. Turkstra Talks is a distinguished speaker series that brings cities into our classrooms to revitalize our urban perspectives and motivate our connections to cities. Kam, a Senior Executive in Solar Energy and Distributed Generation will be talking about how solar energy and energy storage are changing our cities and the world.

Meet graduate student researchers from science,
engineering, and mathematics and hear how they discovered quantum information
science found their way into research, and how the skills they gained in
their undergraduate studies are helping them develop the next generation of
quantum technology.

As part of the Water Institute's WaterTalks lecture series, Erin Mahoney,
Commissioner of Environmental Services for York Region and Douglas Wright
Engineer-in-Residence will present: York Region’s One Water Story…
recognizing the value of water in all its forms.

Co-hosted by the Water Institute and The Turkstra Chair in Urban Engineering.

Join Research Talks, a panel discussion and Q&A examining the future of
employment featuring:

Praxes of Care: Delineating nation state capital — Bonnie Devine & Luis Jacob

Please join us for Caretaking, the fourth of five conversations on the theme
of attention, with speakers Annmarie Adams, McGill University, and David
Theodore, McGill University.  Their short presentations will be followed by a
discussion moderated by Fiona L. Kenney, PhD student, McGill School of

WIN Thematic Seminar Series: Sustainable Nanomaterials for Environmental Management Systems

We’ve all been taught the 3Rs from a young age: reduce, reuse, recycle. But we tend to focus too much on that last R. While recycling is important, less than 10% of plastics in Canada are recycled, which means it does little to reduce how much of it we consume. We may even use more because we think what we’re using is being recycled. This brings us to a missing “R”: reimagine.

Join us on November 5 as we welcome Alumni from our graduate programs to speak about the impact their graduate degree had on their career path. This is a great event to attend if you are curious about how a graduate degree in engineering can support you!

Date: Friday, November 5
Time: 12pm-1pm EDT
