Current students

We are honoured to welcome Sir Andrew Steer as the 2025 TD Walter Bean Professor in Environment. This fall, he will join the Faculty of Environment to deliver two compelling lectures exploring how leaders, innovators, and citizens can rise to meet the world’s most urgent environmental challenges — for nature, our cities and for our shared future. 

Our heartfelt congratulations to our new alumni who had their accomplishments celebrated at this week’s convocation ceremony. With their degrees now in hand, these new alumni are ready to make meaningful contributions to the world’s most pressing challenges. From tackling climate change and shaping sustainable cities to safeguarding natural environments and forging unique partnerships, we are confident they are ready to take on the world — and make it better.

Join us in celebrating the outstanding undergraduate students who have received awards for their academic achievements: Eloise Fan, Neha Lal, Sophia Armstrong, Harry Cheung, Ricardo Dabydeen, Ben DePetris, Salma Ibrahim, Jason Simrak and Alex Walton. Kudos, award winners!

As part of their final capstone course, Environment and Business students, Lina Wilson, Cove Young, Sarah Fencott, and Megan Aucoin, developed a best practices final report to support the creation of a reconciliation action plan for the Faculty of Environment.

Third-year Knowledge Integration students showcased their final museum-style projects touching on reimagining the future of our health and society.  

Our 11th annual ENVigorate festival has wrapped up. Let’s look back at the highlights of exploring climate optimism as a community. 

We are thrilled to share that Natasha Serrao, PhD candidate in the School of Environment, Resources and Sustainability, was selected as a finalist in the 2025 SSHRC’s Storytellers Challenge!
