9th Annual World Wetlands Day Research Symposium at the University of Waterloo

Join us for casual conversations with quantum researchers.

What makes a superconducting qubit tick? How does experience in a research lab prepare you for working on major projects after graduation?

We’ll talk about these topics and more with IQC alumnus Thomas McConkey, now a Microwave Design Engineer at IBM Q, at the next virtual fireside chat.

Tune in live on YouTube.

Professor German Sciaini from the Department of Chemistry will introduce you to the new development in his research lab where capabilities of Transmission Electron Microscopy in liquid are pushed to its extreme. You can now take images and even record videos of moving nanoparticles with unprecedented resolution. Learn how WatCo is helping Professor Sciaini's group commercialize his technology, and how various types of Intellectual Property come to play.

In 2015, after documenting testimonies from Indigenous survivors of the residential school system in Canada, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission released 94 Calls to Action to enable reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians.

“MANY-BODY QED WITH ATOMS AND PHOTONS: A NEW FRONTIER FOR QUANTUM OPTICS”

We've partnered with Women in Engineering to get University of Waterloo community members access to a free screening of Picture A Scientist - a documentary raising visibility around gender bias and racism in science.

Following the film screening period, the Undergraduate Science Society will be hosting a discussion open to all students, faculty, and staff members who would like to share their thoughts.

The University of Waterloo is proud to honour the many accomplishments of our 2021 graduates and will mark this milestone with live online convocation ceremonies.

Graduands, family, friends and the University community are invited to attend by registering for the Faculty of Science convocation ceremony on June 19th at 4PM.

World Fuel Cell Conference (WFCC) is established under the auspice of the International Association for Hydrogen Energy (IAHE) as an umbrella organization to lead and coordinate the information dissemination related to hydrogen and fuel cell R&D activities, development, advancement and education. 

Faculty members, Research staff, Safety Office staff, Research Ethics staff, and Information Systems & Technology staff involved in research using biological, chemical, radiological, or nuclear materials or technology are invited to join Public Safety Canada (PSC) for the Safeguarding science workshop.
