Feeling stressed? Take a break and boost your day with a therapy dog. 

It's Summer Time and you know what that means. The sun's out, the bees are buzzing, and most importantly, Scichella is back! To celebrate our first in-person term, Science Society is bringing back Scichella - an outdoor, carnival-style festival!

Nanotechnology is a powerful tool that can be utilized to create a sustainable, healthy, and prosperous future. Through the 2022 Global Summit we hope all attendees will appreciate the opportunities that nanotechnology can provide along with understanding its limitations so that they can be addressed. The Global Summit will bring together people from all over the world who are interested in improving global health in terms of nanotechnology, sustainability, digital health, and equity, diversity & inclusion (ED&I).

With only one month until you begin your first year at UWaterloo, the Science Undergraduate Office wants to help you Get Waterloo Ready by answering all your questions. 

Join our team of advisors as they answer some of the most frequently asked questions from incoming students about academics and courses. You’ll also have the opportunity to ask them anything in real-time.

We've all looked up at the night sky from time to time and stared in wonder at the sheer number of twinkling stars piercing through the vast darkness.  We've marveled at the rise of a bright full moon and been awed by the brilliant streak of a falling star.  As we take in the beauty of the cosmos, our curiosity pushes us for a deeper understanding of the various elements that define our galaxy.

Quantum computing promises to dramatically alter how we solve many computational problems by controlling information encoded in quantum bits. With potential applications in optimization, materials science, chemistry, and more, building functional quantum computers is one of the most exciting challenges in research today. To build and use these devices, we need to precisely control quantum bits in the lab, understand the ability and limitations of quantum algorithms, and find new methods to correct for decoherence and other quantum errors.

The Indigenous peoples of the University of Waterloo will ask Vivek Goel, President and Vice-Chancellor, for a full commitment to reconciliation, Indigenization and decolonization at the institution during an Indigenous Commitment ceremony on Thursday, September 22, 2022.
