EQuALS is a venue for graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and young scholars considering an academic career in a Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) field.  The purpose of this conference is to explore the spectrum of pathways of academic success in STEM with an explicit focus on gender equity and its intersections with other identity markers.

Women in Nanotechnology Seminar

All students are invited to meet prominent women in nanotechnology to hear about their history, exciting research, and how they chose their successful career paths.

This seminar will provide valuable information to all students, particularly to female students, who may be interested in graduate work and careers in S&T but do not know what avenues are open to them.

Now available to all Waterloo Engineering departments, the Palihapitiya/Lau Venture Creation Fund provides two $50,000 awards to University-selected Capstone Design teams whose intention is to transform their Capstone Design project into a promising startup post-graduation.
